Fedora 28: 2018-e9821afbca Critical NoScript JavaScript Issue

The NoScript Firefox extension provides extra protection for Firefox.

It allows JavaScript, Java, Flash and other plug-ins to be executed only by

trusted web sites of your choice (e.g. your online bank) and additionally

provides Anti-XSS protection.

revamped CSP backend, enforcing policies both in webRequest and in the DOM *

Reload-less service worker busting * removed obsoleted failsafes, including

are injected last among WebExtensions * Fixed regression causing refresh loops

* [L10n] ru and de translations * [XSS] Updated HTML events auto-generate

matching code to use both latest Mozilla source code and archived data since

Firefox ESR 52 * New dynamic scripts management strategy based on the
