- bug 1279699 - Crash in OOM | large | mozalloc_abort | mozalloc_handle_oom | moz_xmalloc | std::_Allocate | std::basic_stringbuf<T>::overflow
- Last patch was backed-out
- New patch landed that uses separate file for each page
- uplifted to Beta
- bug 1273372 - [EME] Crash in mozilla::gmp::GMPChild::ProcessingError - (Applocker)
- patches up for review
- bug 1321522 - Crash in mozilla::gfx::RecordedScaledFontCreation::PlayEvent
- fairly low level crash - null check with gfxDevCrash logging landed
- bug 1319456 - fix landed and uplifted to Beta
- bug 1321256 - Run firefox 50 from a network drive (not working anymore)
- looks like this was down to using a restricted token (USER_RESTRICTED_SAME_ACCESS) as the initial token even when using USER_NON_ADMIN later which is not restricted.
- fix landed, need to uplift
- we need to think how this will work for when we are using restricted tokens, because then we have to use initial restricted token, as I understand it
- bug 1322520 - Print Edit add-on can no longer print to PDF with landscape orientation
- down to more printing weirdness, basically because the print device has to exist even when printing to PDF, which doesn't use a print device
- bug 1316665 - Never ending spinners on a freshly installed Nightly 64-bit
- content process is failing to start on VMs for this company when Firefox installed to AppData (because of no admin rights)
- probably down to DLLs not loading, as we get no logs
- hoped this would be fixed by bug 1321256 patch, but it isn't
- asked them for VM set-up instructions so that we can reproduce
- Closed off bug 1275813 and bug 1271890

tedd

jld
- (not much; I've been sick since I got back from Hawaiʻi)

- bug 1315325 - Add telemetry to measure use of NPAPI NPN Get/Post URL apis
- bsmedberg raised doubts about the value of telemetry on these methods.
- Suggestion seems to be that we can ask Adobe about how the API is used
(i.e. ask if file usage always comes from a temp file or if "broader" file support is required)
- Goal is to determine if we can reduce API scope to eliminate attackable surface area
- bug 1251202 - Implement Default Audio Device Notifications for NPAPI plugins on Windows
- Tracked Adobe issue to calls made from the wrong thread
- bug 1273091 - Mouse cursor does not disappear in html5 fullscreen video on Windows
- Uplift to Beta
- bug 1321493 - NPAPI sandbox is blocking Flash SecureSocket from using Windows certificate APIs on Win64
- Deciding how to support this API
- bug 1185472 - Only allow NPAPI HWNDs to be adopted by an HWND in the chrome process.
- Simplified patch with suggestions from bobowen
- in review
