Pale Moon updated to 26.0.3!

Unread post by Moonchild » 2016-02-06, 12:14

This is a small but important update addressing 2 issues:
  • Changed our cookie gate to allow cookie names with spaces in them, to improve web compatibility. Restricting cookies to address CVE-2016-1939 also blacklisted a "grey" character (being 0x20, or the space character) in cookie names, causing issues with some websites. This also affected Firefox who will be releasing a similar compatibility update soon.
    Critical note: if your site uses cookie names with spaces in them, please consider moving away from doing that so you are no longer in the "grey" area of cookie behavior.
  • Changed the configuration of our XSS filter to address some known, harmless filter hits that have been reported.
