https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1544386 I find it really gross that they do not allow others to access it. This behavior damages the forks.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
True they could have been clearer on the versions affected, but tbh you should keep with the latest supported anyway. Security bug reports are often restricted for some time after a new release to help prevent reverse engineering to find the bug.
Please do not assume people are not running current release just because they are lazy and have not upgraded. The user experience was degraded at FF57 for many individuals who need extensions that will not work with ff>56 or that developers have abandoned out of frustration with Mozilla. When all the extensions I find necessary are functional (or with suitable replacements) I will switch.
Really unhappy with Mozilla. Does this effect all versions of Firefox? Quantum only? The bug report itself is not viewable publicly either.

It's in moments like this where I really dislike running Ubuntu and having to wait for the new build to be released.

Mozilla can still give access for the developers of forks without opening it to the public before they (and the forks!) have managed to rollout a full update.
Plus, you assume that the select few developers that are given the exploit information are trustworthy. The exploit being public from the first day is better than if even a single developer is untrustworthy or compromised.
