Mozilla Firefox Version 117.0.1 Released

 

Mozilla sent Firefox Version 117.0.1 to the Release Channel.

Fixed

• Fixed a bug causing links opened from outside Firefox to not open on macOS (bug 1850828)

• Fixed a bug causing extensions using an event page for long-running tasks to be terminated while running, causing unexpected behavior changes (bug 1851373)

• Temporarily reverted an intentional behavior change preventing Javascript from changing URL.protocol (bug 1850954).
  NOTE: This change is expected to ship in a later Firefox release alongside other web browsers and sites are encouraged to find alternate ways to change the protocol if needed.

• Fixed audio worklets not working for sites using WebAssembly exception handling (bug 1851468)

• Fixed the Reopen all tabs option in the Recently closed tabs menu sometimes failing to open all tabs (bug 1850856)

• Fixed the bookmarks menu sometimes remaining partially visible when minimizing Firefox (bug 1843700)

• Fixed an issue causing incorrect time zones to be detected on some sites (bug 1848615)

Update: To get the update now, select "Help" from the Firefox menu, then pick "About Firefox".  Mac users need to select "About Firefox" from the Firefox menu.  For non-English versions, Fully Localized Versions are available for download.
