    Version
    147.0 of the Firefox web browser has been released. Notable
    changes in this release include support for the XDG Base
    Directory specification, enabling local
    network access restrictions for users with enhanced
    tracking protection (ETP) set to "Strict", and a fix that improves
    Firefox's rendering with GNOME on fractionally scaled
    displays. Firefox˙147 also includes a number of security
    fixes, including several sandbox-escape vulnerabilities.
