Details

USN-5709-1 fixed vulnerabilities in Firefox. The update introduced
several minor regressions. This update fixes the problem.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

Original advisory details:

Multiple security issues were discovered in Firefox. If a user were
tricked into opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could
potentially exploit these to cause a denial of service, obtain sensitive
information across domains, or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2022-42927,
CVE-2022-42928, CVE-2022-42929, CVE-2022-42930, CVE-2022-42932)

It was discovered that Firefox saved usernames to a plaintext file. A
local user could potentially exploit this to obtain sensitive information.
(CVE-2022-42931)
