Security News > 2022 > June > Firefox 101 is out, this time with no 0-day scares (but update anyway!)
This follows an intriguing month of Firefox 100 releases, with Firefox 100.0 arriving, as did Chromium 100 a month or so before it, without any trouble caused by the shift from a two-digit to a three-digit version number.
No doubt in part due to the efforts of both Google's Chromium and Mozilla's Firefox coders, the 100.0 release of both browsers was ultimately uneventful.
Firefox followed its regular 100.0 release with an emergency 100.0.1 release, which turned on a brand new Windows security feature that hadn't quite made the cut in 100.0.
We don't doubt that the somewhat less dramatic release of 101.0, with no zero-day security holes fixed, and no patches deemed Critical, will have been something of a relief to the Mozilla team.
The ESR flavour of Firefox is popular with network sysadmins who are willing to wait for new features, but not at the expense of running software that's outdated from a security point of view.
As usual, go to Help > About Firefox to check if you're up to date, and to force an update if it turns out you aren't.
