Most intensive stuff when it comes to single page will still happen in 2 processes at best in multi-process browsers as far as I can tell. I doubt animations are treated specially from the rest of HTML/CSS.

I saw Firefox's content process put max load even on 3 CPU cores (multi-threading!) at once while with Pale Moon, you're lucky when you see 2 cores loaded. In general I mean, not related to animations, these look cheap compared to other stuff that may be going on.

I installed the extension. Can it increase the number of addresses to keep in history? My problem was that I remembered visiting a certain page, but not all the details, and it had fallen out of the history too soon.

What is "async" in the context of Firefox. I understand how two processes can be asynchronous. But how does this term apply to the dyna,mic size of history?

In Opera I have 50000 entries. It is endless. Sounded like Firefox admitted that their browser isn't particularly efficient when they decreased the size.

The German media (TV) portal Tele5:

https://tele5.de/mediathek

was "overhauled" recently (you guess what comes next :whistle:), as a result UXP-based browsers now won't load at all their embedded (JS-based) HTML5 player, even when the geo-resrtiction has been circumvented (whitelisted DE IP address via VPN/HTTPS proxy, etc.); e.g., loading in latest NM28 below URL:

https://tele5.de/mediathek/die-saeulen-der-erde-teil-1-und-2

one ends up with:

Does anyone have any faint idea what type of "Chrome-ism" :realmad: is it that they require now :angry:, as (yes, you guessed right again ;) ) Chromium86-based 360EEv13 is quite capable of loading that JS player (and initiating playback as well):

It should be noted that the overhaul has the neat side-effect that all content is no longer DRM-protected as it was before. (yt-dlp also does not support the new site format yet, but you can already use the network traffic monitor to grab the "master.m3u8" URL and pass that to yt-dlp.)

MyPal 68 directly plays all videos fine.

Always makes me HAPPY TO READ.

Especially with a very long and growing list of "posts" here at MSFN that like to remind us that much newer versions of Chrome shouldn't even be used.  "We know already."  Something like that.

I have St52 at home and will test this player and "Google-ism" from St52 later today.

webp CVE is scary, ported changes of https://github.com/webmproject/libwebp/compare/7ba44f80f3b94fc0138db159afea770ef06532a0...95ea5226c870449522240ccff26f0b006037c520 will be in NM27/mozilla45esr/SP55/UXP in next build. (libwebp in NM26 is too old to get changes ported so no clue for it)

What harm could the webP vulnerability cause practically? Can they include a program in the picture file that does something useful? People seem to be worried about image viewers.

There is a good explanation here:

https://stackdiary.com/critical-vulnerability-in-webp-codec-cve-2023-4863/

Quote
  • Important: Let me make it perfectly clear that this vulnerability doesn't just affect web browsers, it affects any software that uses the libwebp library. This includes Electron-based applications, for example - Signal. Electron patched the vulnerability yesterday. Also, software like Honeyview (from Bandisoft) released an update to fix the issue. CVE-2023-4863 was falsely marked as Chrome-only by Mitre and other organizations that track CVE's and 100% of media reported this issue as "Chrome only", when it's not.
     
  • Who uses libwebp? There are a lot of applications that use libwebp to render WebP images, I already mentioned a few of them, but some of the others that I know include: Affinity (the design software), Gimp, Inkscape, LibreOffice, Telegram, Thunderbird (now patched), ffmpeg, and many, many Android applications as well as cross-platform apps built with Flutter.

 

Quote

If someone knows a program has a heap buffer overflow vulnerability, they might be able to send it specially crafted data that causes the program to behave in unexpected ways. For instance, they could potentially run malicious code or gain unauthorized access to a system.

A codec is like a translator that helps your computer understand and display WebP images (a format like JPEG or PNG). If this codec has a heap buffer overflow, an attacker might be able to craft a malicious WebP image that, when viewed, exploits this vulnerability to harm your computer or steal information.

How bad is it? Very. If an attacker can exploit a heap buffer overflow, they might be able to take control of a system, steal data, or introduce malware. Protecting against such vulnerabilities is crucial.

 

BTW, official Pale Moon was already fixed yesterday.
