The organization’s security engineers also patched 20 vulnerabilities, one tagged “Critical” and 11 marked “High,” the organization’s two top threat ratings. The single critical flaw only affected Windows, Mozilla said in its patching commentary.

Firefox 69 can be downloaded from Mozilla’s site for Windows, macOS and Linux. Because it updates in the background, most users need only relaunch the browser to get the latest version.
