Pale Moon Updated to Version 26.2.2 With Security Updates


Pale Moon
Pale Moon has been updated to Version 26.2.2.  In addition, the Android version was updated to Version 25.9.2.

This is mainly a security update.  Details from the Release Notes:

Changes/fixes:

  • Added a detection routine for dark window colors on Windows 8 and later (system themes using dark window frames) to better adapt to dark system colors. Theme developers can take advantage of this by checking for darkwindowframe="true" on #main-window in CSS selectors.
  • CSS classes prefixed with "--" no longer stop parsing of the selectors.
  • Several crash fixes.
Security fixes:
  • Made GC suppression more aggressive to prevent issues when actually out of memory.
  • Fixed a memory safety hazard in jpeg decoding.
  • Fixed a potentially exploitable crash when using bi-directional text.
  • Updated NSS to 3.19.4.2-PM, fixing CVE-2016-1938 among other things.

 Minimum system Requirements (Windows):
  • Windows Vista/Windows 7/Windows 8/Server 2008 or later
  • A processor with SSE2 support
  • 256 MB of free RAM (512 MB or more recommended)
  • At least 150 MB of free (uncompressed) disk space
