Mozilla has released Firefox 17.0, ESR 10.0.11, and ESR 17.0.0 (new ESR line). Release date TUE 20 NOV 2012. This release fixes several security exposures, some rated "Critical", but once again is supposedly "not exploit-driven". Curiously, 16.0.2 -> 17.0 lists more advisories than 10.0.10 -> 10.0.11.

With the introduction of the ESR 17.0.0 line, support for the ESR 10.0.x line is scheduled to end 2013 FEB 19.

Oh, and this is the first ESR release to contain the Mozilla Maintenance Service. Managed deployments may want to disable that.

You can skip 17.0.0, Firefox 17.0.1 has been released already.

And a 17.0.1esr to go with it. It's reportedly not security-relevant.
(or so claims the Mozilla enterprise list).

EDIT to ADD: Ah, here's release notes. Looks like they fixed at least a few bugs. The feature lists in 17.0 vs 17.0.1 are the same.

Hi Team,
Any chance of an update on your progress with v17.0.1 ESR please?

Anything we can do to help? Keen to start testing this version before we close down for the Christmas break.

I'd rather have CE 17.0.0 (or 17.0.1) first please since 16.0.2 has security holes

FMFIrefoxCE17.0.1ESR is out, but I think it's going to need some testing to make sure it's really really working.

Hi,

Could it be that the administrative templates also need to be updated for ESR 17.0.x? At least, I couldn't find some options in the adm file.

Thanks a lot for your work.
Best regards,
Peter
