Firefox 158.0.1 Blocks Compromised eMudhra Certificates
Original: # Firefox 158.0.1 Is Out to Block Compromised eMudhra Intermediate Certificates and Fix Bugs and Security Issues https:/
Mozilla has released Firefox 158.0.1, an urgent update that blocks intermediate certificates issued by Indian certificate authority eMudhra after they were found to be compromised. The release also patches several bugs and security issues. The update matters because compromised intermediates could allow fraudulent HTTPS certificates, so users on Linux and other platforms are urged to install it promptly.
Why now: A compromised certificate authority intermediate is a serious web security issue, prompting a rapid browser update.
