On Friday 26 October 2012, Mozilla released Firefox 16.0.2 and ESR 10.0.10. Fixes one security exposure (MFSA 2012-90); reportedly "not exploit-driven".

Yes, they're being released because people took an interest in the sections of code that were responsible for the 10.0.9 & 16.0.1 releases. With increased scrutiny some more bugs were uncovered, hopefully prior to individuals taking advantage of them in the wild. Though now that they've been fixed the clock is ticking on older releases being exploited.

DP,

Can you please make sure the default browser and locked settings/mozilla cfg file creation are working when packaging this version? :)

Thank you!

I kind of suspect that's the plan all the time. ;-)
