Corrine Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 Pale Moon has been updated to Version 27.1. The update is a major development update. Also included are bug fixes as well as security and privacy updates. Many of the security updates are DiD* patches. Of note: Version 27.1 introduces the so-called "PMkit" modules, Pale Moon's effort to restore most compatibility with Firefox Jetpack/SDK extensions and making it possible for extension developers to convert their Firefox SDK extensions with little effort to a Pale Moon compatible format. *DiD stands for "Defense-in-Depth" and is a fix that does not apply to an actively exploitable vulnerability in Pale Moon but prevents future vulnerabilities caused by the same code when surrounding code changes, exposing the problem.

Corrine Posted February 21, 2017 Author Share Posted February 21, 2017 Pale Moon Version 27.1.1 Released: This is a small bugfix and stability update to the browser. Changes/Fixes: Implemented a fix in media handling to prevent crashes with concurrent videos and/or rapidly starting/stopping video playback in the browser. Fixed the way the Adobe Flash plugin is detected to prevent confusion with other plugins that identify themselves as "Flash" (e.g. VLC). Windows: Solved stability issues caused by the release build process, resulting in unexpected behavior (e.g. hangups). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corrine Posted March 3, 2017 Author Share Posted March 3, 2017 Pale Moon updated to 27.1.2!: Pale Moon has been updated to 27.1.2, a minor update with a single workaround fix that should prevent hangs for some users on sites with many media elements (e.g. Facebook, YouTube, etc.). This is a workaround; we are still working on providing a more proper fix to this issue rooted in Mozilla code. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
