Firefox 73.0.1 fixes crashes, blank web pages and DRM niggles
2020-02-20 11:20

Firefox version 73 has only been out for a week but already Mozilla has had to update it to version 73.0.1 to fix a range of browser problems and crashes, including when running on Linux machines.

In an issue known about for some weeks, users running third-party security programs with anti-exploit protection, including the 0patch 'guerrilla' patching agent, were being affected by crashes.

To update to Firefox 73.0.1, it's Options>Help>About Firefox at which point the update should commence automatically.

For more detail on the security fixes included with last week's Firefox 73, read our previous coverage.

As trailed by Naked Security in December, Firefox 73 now supports DNS-over-HTTPS provider NextDNS, adding to current default support for Cloudflare.
