Fixes and improvements

General

• http: restore support for HTTP2 requests (#6320) The server was not advertising the HTTP2 protocol in TLS ALPN anymore. Fix this.
• forward: match destinations by configuration when reloading (#6299) ReloadConf compared the old and new destination lists by position, so removing a destination from the middle of the list shifted all the following ones, which were therefore considered changed and restarted (dropping and re-establishing their connections). Match destinations by their configuration instead: adding, removing or reordering destinations only starts or stops the affected ones, and the others keep running. The position reported by the API and used in logs is updated for the destinations that are kept.
• avoid forward destination overlapping (#6324) When the configuration changes and forward destinations are changed, create new forward destinations only after closing existing ones, avoiding double publishers.
• http: log outbound requests (#6325) log outbound HTTP requests with logLevel debug, in the same way as HTTP inbound requests are already logged.
• fix race condition during logger recreation (#6206) (#6326) The logger can be dynamically recreated (for instance, this happens when changing the logLevel), but some components always need it, in particular hooks, which are not shut down unless the entire server is shutting down. Fix this issue by safely reloading the logger configuration without destroying it.
• document link-local IPv6 zone encoding (#6327)
• recorder: fix different time zones in record segment name (#5451) (#6333) Absolute timestamps of frames can have different time zones, in particular, timestamps from HLS sources arrive with their original time zone. When an absolute timestamp is not available, gohlslib uses time.Now(), which has the local time zone, resulting in streams with timestamps with different time zones. Timestamps are used in names of record segments, but they were not normalized and were written with their original time zone, causing confusion and errors in particular when the '%z' placeholder is not used. Fix the issue by normalizing every incoming date to the local time zone before using it as name of a segment.
• add timezone to default recordPath and warn when not present (#6334) recordPath without %z causes segments to be overwritten or placed at wrong time during daylight saving time switches.
• rtmp, recorder, stream: treat H264 recovery point SEI as random access (#6349) Streams without IDR frames use I slices with a recovery point SEI as random access points. The RTMP reader output and the fMP4 recorder only accepted IDR, and the unit remuxer only prepended SPS and PPS on IDR, so the DTS extractor never received an SPS. Use h264.IsRandomAccess, as the MPEG-TS outputs already do.
• mpegts, rtmp: stop silently skipping H264 units without IDR and without non-IDR (#6354)
• recorder: fix height of VP9 tracks in fMP4 recordings (#6359) The fMP4 recorder took the height of a VP9 track from the width in the key frame header, so the init segment declared a square size, for example 1920x1920 instead of 1920x804. Use the height instead.
• docs: suggest to run MediaMTX in a writable folder (#6369) * when running in Docker, use /etc/mediamtx * when running in host Linux, use /usr/local/etc/mediamtx
• recorder: fix timestamps of MPEG-1/2 Audio tracks in fMP4 recordings (#6361) The DTS of every sample was computed as the unit PTS plus the unit PTS, so sample durations in the recording were twice the real ones, and the frames of a unit that holds several of them got the same timestamp. Advance the PTS by the duration of each frame instead, and move the NTP of each frame by the same offset, as the Opus, MPEG-4 Audio and AC-3 cases do.
• recorder: prevent a stream-time discontinuity from inflating fMP4 segment duration (#5984) When an RTP timestamp discontinuity occurs (e.g. after a burst of packet loss), the gap between two consecutive samples can be enormous. In the fMP4 recorder that gap is written as the preceding sample's duration (sample.Duration = nextSample.dts - sample.dts), which pushes the segment's endDTS -- and therefore the duration stamped into the mvhd header and reported to runOnRecordSegmentComplete -- forward by the size of the gap. The existing NTP-vs-stream-time drift detector (added in #5239) only fires on the next sample, by which point the inflated segment has already been flushed and reported (a ~1-minute clip reported as multiple hours). Detect the discontinuity one sample earlier: when the next sample's stream time has drifted from absolute time beyond the tolerance, zero the current sample's duration so the segment is not inflated. The drift detector then resets the recording on the following sample as before. mpegts is unaffected (it checks drift against the current sample before touching the segment). Complements #5126 (negative diff) and #5239 (drift reset).
• close sessions when their JWT expires (#4300) (#5813) (#6389)
• allow HTTP authentication to set a session expiration date (#6391)
• record: fix segments never deleted when the configuration is reloaded often (#6256)
• exit in case of fatal listening errors (#6415)
• stream: fix 8-channel AAC always-available tracks refusing 7.1 publishers (#6414) With an always-available MPEG4Audio track of channelCount 8, a 7.1 AAC publisher is refused with "MPEG-4 audio configuration does not match". The track uses channel configuration 8, which is reserved, while the publisher's configuration is 7. Channel configuration 7 stands for 8 channels. Use configuration 7 for an 8-channel track. Other channel counts are unchanged.
• fix routine leak in CertLoader (#6261) (#6417) make CertLoader.Close() to wait for CertLoader.watch()
• mpegts: fix reading tracks with big video frames (bluenviron/mediacommon#393) (#4791) Big video frames delay audio packets, which are needed to parse tracks. Increase maximum buffer size to account for that.
• mpegts: stop validating AC-3 / EAC-3 frames (bluenviron/mediacommon#395) Validating AC-3 / EAC-3 frames is not important for the MPEG-TS parser to work and decreases performance.

API

• add endpoints to manage internal users (#6293) Add dedicated endpoints to manage specific users without the need of calling config/global/patch with the entire user list, in particular: /v3/config/internal-users/list /v3/config/internal-users/get/{id} /v3/config/internal-users/add /v3/config/internal-users/patch/{id} /v3/config/internal-users/replace/{id} /v3/config/internal-users/delete/{id}
• prevent using internal-users/list with deprecated credentials (#6368)
• fix global/patch with webrtcICEServers or credentials (#6362) (#6365) When the deprecated webrtcICEServers parameter is set, webrtcICEServers2 is filled automatically, but the latter prevents the former from being set through global/patch. Fix this. The same applies to deprecated credentials (readUser, readPass, publishUser, publishPass) and authInternalUsers.
• expose users of MoQ sessions (#6390)
• fix channel count of 8-channel MPEG-4 Audio tracks (#6405) When a path carries an MPEG-4 Audio track with channel configuration 7, for instance AAC in the 7.1 layout, the track is listed with "channelCount": 7 in the codecProps of the tracks2 field of the path API, while it has 8 channels. Tracks with 1 to 6 channels are listed correctly. Channel configuration 7 stands for 8 channels, while the values 1 to 6 are equal to the channel count. Report 8 for configuration 7.
• add duration to fmp4 record segments (#6412)

Media-Over-QUIC

• send client SETUP without waiting for server one (#6396)
• log every inbound and outbound message (#6404)
• fix channel count of 8-channel MPEG-4 Audio tracks (#6406) A MoQ client reading a 7.1 AAC path gets "channels": 7 in the catalog, while the track has 8 channels. A MoQ source or publisher sending "channels": 8 gets channel configuration 8, which is reserved. Channel configuration 7 stands for 8 channels. Report 8 for configuration 7 and use configuration 7 for 8 channels, so a relay of a 7.1 track keeps configuration 7. Other values are unchanged.
• support draft-22, draft-21, draft-20 (#6403)

RTMP

• preserve tcURL query when appending stream key (bluenviron/gortmplib#133) Parse the tcURL and stream key separately before joining their paths so existing tcURL query parameters remain attached to the final URL. Merge stream-key query parameters, preserve escaped paths, and avoid populating RawPath when no custom escaping is required.
• support leading question mark in stream key (bluenviron/gortmplib#141)
• Expose ErrReaderUnpublish to handle graceful shutdown on MediaMTX (bluenviron/gortmplib#139) * Expose ErrReaderUnpublish to handle graceful shutdown on MediaMTX * Add patch coverage to ErrReaderUnpublished

HLS

• fix MPEG-TS variant failing on streams with Opus tracks (#6387) With hlsVariant set to mpegts, a stream that carries an Opus track, for instance H264 and Opus published through WebRTC, could not be read through HLS. The muxer failed to start with "the MPEG-TS variant of HLS supports MPEG-4 Audio only" and playlist requests got a 500 error, so the video was unreadable too, while other tracks that HLS cannot carry are skipped with a warning. Skip the audio tracks that are not MPEG-4 Audio when the variant is MPEG-TS, as setupDataTracks already does for KLV tracks. A stream whose only track is such an audio track now returns ErrNoSupportedCodecs instead of failing when the muxer starts.
• fix MPEG-TS variant failing on streams with several audio tracks (#6394) With hlsVariant set to mpegts, a stream that carries two MPEG-4 Audio tracks, for instance H264 and two AAC tracks received through MPEG-TS over SRT, could not be read through HLS. The muxer failed to start with "the MPEG-TS variant of HLS supports a single audio track only" and playlist requests got a 500 error, so the video was unreadable too, while other tracks that HLS cannot carry are skipped with a warning. Skip the MPEG-4 Audio tracks that follow the first one when the variant is MPEG-TS, like the audio tracks of other codecs that this variant cannot carry.
• muxer: support H264 recovery points (bluenviron/gohlslib#403)
• muxer: stop silently skipping H264 units without IDR and without non-IDR (bluenviron/gohlslib#405)
• add AI warning (bluenviron/gohlslib#406)

WebRTC

• prevent using webrtcICEServers and webrtcICEServers2 together (#6367)

UDP

• support interface=all for multicast sources (#6253) restore support for listening for UDP multicast packets on all multicast-capable network interfaces. To do so, add the interface=all parameter to the end of a UDP multicast URL when configuring the source.

RPI Camera

• support newlines in text overlay (#5763) (bluenviron/mediamtx-rpicamera#124)

Security

Binaries are compiled from source code by the Release workflow, which is a fully-visible process that prevents any change or external interference in produced artifacts.

Checksums of binaries are also published in a public blockchain by using GitHub Attestations, and they can be verified by running:

ls mediamtx_* | xargs -L1 gh attestation verify --repo bluenviron/mediamtx

You can verify checksums of binaries by downloading checksums.sha256 and running:

cat checksums.sha256 | grep "$(ls mediamtx_*)" | sha256sum --check

1.17.2 (2026-10-24)

1.17.2 fixes a cross-site scripting hole in re-opened drafts and keeps Safari from dropping push subscriptions after pushes that had nothing new to show. Drafts written as a group identity now stay in the group's Drafts, and bulk delete, trash and move with several accounts on different servers act on the right server. Plugins can update and remove their own tags, format dates in the user's regional settings and put buttons beside a sidebar section's title. User-facing texts use the configured app name instead of "Bulwark".

Security

• Composer: The quoted original and the signature in a re-opened draft are sanitized before they render. A draft written by another client, or by another member of a shared mailbox, could carry markup that ran script in the webmail when you opened it (GHSA-g35q-3gpc-x2rr, thanks @muhammad-zeeshan1337)

Features

• Plugins: Plugins can change the label, colour and visibility of the tags they added and remove them again with keywords.update and keywords.remove. Both need settings:write and never touch the user's own tags or another plugin's (#1333, thanks @HOLOEYE-JZ)
• Plugins: Plugin frames get the user's date locale, 12/24-hour setting, time zone and first day of the week, and can format with api.i18n.formatDate and api.i18n.formatTime, without asking for settings:read (#1335, thanks @tobiasge)
• Plugins: A new sidebar-section-actions slot puts a plugin's buttons beside its sidebar section's title instead of in a row below it (#1317, thanks @LeonardNJU)
• Admin: A policy switch lists the Tags above the shared mailboxes in the sidebar, so they stay in sight when many shared mailboxes are expanded. It is off by default (#1334, thanks @HOLOEYE-JZ)
• Branding: Default apps in Settings, the "Open Bulwark" notification, the rate-limit banner, the plugin connect dialog and the connector page use the configured APP_NAME, and the settings search finds them by it (#1314, thanks @ghozty)

Fixes

• Push: Every push ends with a notification, also one that brings nothing new (a redelivery, mail already read or already announced), and a slow preview gives way to the generic notification after 10 seconds. Safari treats a push without a notification as silent and drops the subscription after three (#1322, thanks @oguzyilmaznet)
• Mail: A draft written as a group identity is saved in the group account's Drafts, where its Sent copy also goes, instead of in your own (#1090, thanks @hildebrandttk)
• Mail: A sub-address of your own address (you+tag@) sends from your account, even when a shared catch-all account has a wildcard identity for the domain
• Mail: Bulk delete, trash and move send each message through the login that owns it. With accounts on two servers that use the same account id, they went through the first login and could hit an unselected message on the other server (#1307, #1326, thanks @VasilisNtovolos)
• Mail: Dragging several messages out as a ZIP fails with a message when one of them can't be fetched, instead of leaving it out, and the same selection can be tried again (#1306, thanks @VasilisNtovolos)
• Tasks: A task alert relative to the start fires from the task's start instead of its due date. A task without a start still counts from its due date (#1328, thanks @ClapsAndJiggles)
• Plugins: Plugins installed by the admin are listed in browsers that can't cache their code, such as some private windows (#1327, thanks @ovizii)
• i18n: The Ukrainian "Forward" and "Move to" are translated as the actions, not as "ahead" and "go to" (#1311, thanks @vladonv)

​This should be the last beta release of Paint.NET 5.2 before the final, stable release which I’m planning for the day of-or-after the release of .NET 11. That should be the second week of November.

This build fixes a few bugs, adds a new Uzbek (uz) translation, introduces an official plugin SDK Nuget package, adds a “Nearest Neighbor (Antialiased)” mode to the Move Pixels tool, and includes further improvements to the experimental Wine packages.

Nearest Neighbor (Antialiased) is similar to what the emulator community calls “sharp bilinear”. It first uses Nearest Neighbor to upscale to the ceiling of the requested scaling factor (e.g. from 100% to 700% instead of from 100% to 632%), and then uses bilinear to downscale to the target scaling factor (700% -> 632%). This retains the blocky/pixelated look of Nearest Neighbor, but with the added effect of antialiased edges. This works for both scaling and rotation.

(credit: Stardew Valley)

Changes since 5.2 Beta (build 9772):

• New: Added a “Nearest Neighbor (Antialiased)” resampling mode to the Move Pixels tool
• New: Paint.NET.Plugin.SDK nuget package. You no longer have to manually add references with paths hardcoded for your local system.
• New translation: Uzbek (uz)
• Fixed tooltips for effect plugin menu items not going away when using the keyboard
• Wine: PNG and JPEG images should work a lot better now, with proper metadata support
• Wine: GPU effect plugins that use ComputeSharp.D2D1 are now working
• Wine: Stability and memory usage should be improved by using a better method for selecting a device for software rendering paths

Download and Install

This build is available via the built-in updater as long as you have opted-in to pre-release updates. From within Settings -> Updates, enable “Also check for pre-release (beta) versions of paint.net” and then click on the Check Now button. You can also use the links below to download an offline installer or portable ZIP.

You can also download the installer here (for any supported CPU and OS), which is also where you can find downloads for offline installers, portable ZIPs, and deployable MSIs.

For Linux, the experimental builds for Wine can be downloaded here. It can also work on Mac  but that is not the primary focus at this time.

The wait is almost over, truckers! Get ready to embark on an unforgettable journey through a land shaped by fire, ice, and the forces of nature. We’re excited to officially reveal the release date of the Iceland DLC for Euro Truck Simulator 2, bringing the extraordinary landscapes of this island nation to your virtual trucking adventures!

Iceland DLC for Euro Truck Simulator 2
will be released on November 10th, 2026

To celebrate this milestone, we’re also happy to share the official Iceland DLC video trailer on our YouTube channel. Take a closer look at the breathtaking scenery, winding roads, and unique destinations that await you in this upcoming map expansion.

Iceland stands apart as one of Earth's most extraordinary places, offering a remarkable variety of landscapes shaped by volcanic activity and ancient glaciers. From towering volcanoes and vast ice fields to dramatic coastlines, black sand beaches, and powerful waterfalls, there is something incredible waiting around every corner. Now, you’ll have the opportunity to experience these natural wonders from behind the wheel of your truck!

With 14 cities and settlements to explore, including Reykjavík and Akureyri, there will be plenty of new destinations to discover along your journey. You’ll travel along the iconic Ring Road, connecting lively urban areas, quiet settlements, rugged coastlines, and remote corners of the island, with every route offering a different glimpse into Iceland’s unique character.

Along the way, you’ll encounter some of Iceland’s most recognisable natural landmarks, including Jökulsárlón, Goðafoss, Gullfoss, Seljalandsfoss, Víkurfjara, Geysir, and Þingvellir, among many others. You’ll also come across narrow bridges with single-lane traffic, where drivers must give way to oncoming vehicles, adding a new layer of realism and care to your journeys. Whether you’re driving past majestic mountains, crossing vast plains and volcanic fields, or navigating roads surrounded by towering cliffs, you’ll have plenty of opportunities to take in the island’s spectacular scenery.

But there’s more to Iceland than its natural beauty! The DLC will also introduce a variety of industries and delivery opportunities, from custom-made farms and quarries to a distinctive silica factory in Húsavík. These locations will bring their own character to the experience, giving you plenty of reasons to keep your wheels turning across the island.

And when night falls, be sure to keep an eye on the sky. Under the right conditions, the Northern Lights may illuminate the landscape, creating a truly memorable backdrop for your deliveries. To make your journeys even more immersive, daylight hours will accurately reflect Iceland’s real-world timing, bringing another layer of authenticity to your travels.

The Iceland DLC invites you to experience a destination unlike any other in Euro Truck Simulator 2. We can’t wait for you to discover its winding roads, unique industries, and breathtaking natural wonders for yourselves!

We’re thrilled to finally share this milestone with our #BestCommunityEver, and we look forward to seeing you hit the roads of Iceland soon. Thank you for your continued support and enthusiasm throughout development!

Overview

UniFi Network Application 11.0.97 requires UniFi OS 6.0 or newer.

Improvements

• Improved application stability.

• Revoked compromised eMudhra CA certificates.

Bugfixes

• Fixed an issue where the Site filter in the Site Manager System Logs was not working.

Additional information

Self-Hosted UniFi Deployments

For self-hosted deployments, we recommend transitioning to UniFi OS Server, which provides the full UniFi OS Platform experience, including the latest features, improvements, and integrations.

UniFi Cloud Gateways remain our recommended solution for deployments that do not require self-hosting.

Improvements

• Revoked compromised eMudhra CA certificates.

Additional information

UniFi OS Server

Going forward, we recommend users upgrade to UniFi OS Server for all self-hosted deployments. It provides the full UniFi OS Platform experience, ensuring you receive the latest features, improvements, and integrations.

UniFi Network Native Application for UniFi OS

Compatible with UDM, UDR, UDR7, UDR 5G Max, Express, Express 7, and UCG models (Ultra, Max, Fiber, and Industrial) on UniFi OS 3.1.6 or later. UDM-Pro, UDM-SE, and UDW have been using it since UniFi OS 5.1.5.

• The UniFi OS update utilizes the application version compatible with your console.

• The manual update process via SSH requires a compatible package. Incompatible packages will be rejected on installation.

• Older UniFi OS versions (prior to UniFi OS 3.1.6) on the UDM and UDR continue to utilize the standard UniFi Network Application for UniFi OS.

 The Stable channel has been updated to 157.0.8103.15/.16 for Windows , Mac will be coming shortly as part of our early stable release to a small percentage of users. A full list of changes in this build is available in the log.

1.17.1 (2026-10-22)

Security

• Dependencies: Next.js 16.4.2 and DOMPurify 3.4.17 fix six published advisories, three of them critical. None of them reached Bulwark: the webmail has no use cache functions and no Server Actions, its image optimizer refuses SVG and runs on sharp 0.35.5, which already carries the fix, and the mail sanitizer uses none of the DOMPurify modes the bypasses need (SAFE_FOR_TEMPLATES, IN_PLACE, XHTML parsing). Updating is still recommended

1.17.1 stops the background-notifications prompt from asking you to turn push on while the app is still restoring a subscription the browser dropped, and an open tab now repairs a dropped subscription on its own. The message list stays within the screen on phones, and a browser that was already signed in hands a mobile sign-in to the app again.

Changes

• Dependencies: vitest 4.1.12 and vite 8.3.5 (npm audit)

Fixes

• Push: The background-notifications prompt waits for the background re-sync and only asks if push is still off afterwards, instead of appearing while the app is restoring a subscription Safari dropped (#1321, thanks @oguzyilmaznet)
• Push: A tab that stays open notices when the browser drops or replaces its push subscription and registers the new one at once, and coming back to the tab recreates a lost subscription instead of waiting for the next reload (#1321)
• Mobile: On phones, the message list is never wider than the screen, so the header's buttons, each row's date and the subject's ellipsis stay on screen and the selection toolbar compacts its buttons
• Login: A mobile sign-in opened in a browser that was already signed in keeps the sign-in form and hands the sign-in to the app, instead of opening the mailbox and leaving the app stuck in its sign-in sheet

Notice

VersityGW Security Update: Go crypto/x509 Certificate Distrust
This release updates VersityGW’s Go toolchain to include Go’s fix for CVE-2026-111943 (Go issue 82345). The fix blocks certificate chains containing compromised eMudhra intermediate certificates.

VersityGW uses Go’s certificate verification when connecting to TLS-protected services, including S3-compatible storage, IAM/OIDC providers, Vault, LDAP, and webhooks. Before the fix, a network attacker able to intercept or redirect one of these connections could potentially use a certificate issued through an affected intermediate to impersonate the service. After the update, Go rejects those chains, and connections to endpoints still presenting them may fail until their certificates are replaced.

This fix applies to binaries rebuilt with a patched Go toolchain. Go 1.26.10 and Go 1.27.3 contain the fix; use a later patched release if available. Existing VersityGW binaries must be rebuilt and redeployed. Connections configured to skip certificate verification do not receive this protection. These release artifacts are built with Go 1.27.3.

Action: Upgrade to this VersityGW release and redeploy. If you operate a TLS endpoint that VersityGW connects to, confirm its certificate chain does not use a distrusted intermediate.

Highlights

• Here are some big-ticket volunteer contributions this week:
  • Thank you to volunteer contributor Cornelius, who made console evaluation able to re-declare let and const variables in our DevTools!
  • Thank you to F3tch, who landed several patches to allow setting of camera and microphone permissions, reject zero-sized screenshots, and add a vendor-specific WebDriver BiDi command for listing installed extensions, as well as update cookie test expirations.
  • Thank you to SMRehan, who landed a (disabled by default) mode that lets Picture-in-Picture open when the browsing window is occluded (as opposed to when changing tabs).
    • This can be tested by setting media.videocontrols.picture-in-picture.enable-when-occluded.enabled to true
  • In Nightly 160, we have enabled the playback speed feature for Picture-in-Picture by default:
  • Thank you to volunteer contributor Simon Rosen for the bulk of the initial work on this!

WebDriver

• Beatriz Rizental improved the Marionette harness to accept multiple –tag arguments similar to other in-tree harnesses.
• Khalid AlHaddad improved the PollPromise to throw an error by default and not only log a warning when it times out.
• Alexandra Borovova added support for the imageSize argument to the browsingContext.captureScreenshot command, which allows clients to specify the maximum size of the resulting screenshot image.
• Alexandra Borovova added support for the destinationFolder argument to the browsingContext.startScreencast command, which allows clients to choose the folder where the recorded video file is saved.
• Alexandra Borovova implemented the support for the prefers-color-scheme parameter in the emulation.setMediaFeaturesOverride command, which lets clients emulate dark or light mode on a website.
• Henrik Skupin improved the handling of recommended preferences for automation to use the default branch, preventing them from leaking into subsequent Firefox sessions.
• Henrik Skupin fixed a bug where accepted server sockets still had Nagle’s algorithm enabled, causing up to 40ms delays for back-to-back writes on Linux.
• Henrik Skupin improved geckodriver’s shutdown handling by waiting for Firefox’s hang monitor to terminate hung processes before force-killing them.
• Henrik Skupin added a temporary workaround to prevent Glean from causing shutdown hangs for short-lived Firefox processes.
• Holger Benl added machine-readable CDDL for all Firefox WebDriver BiDi vendor extensions (“moz:” commands, events, parameters, capabilities…).
• Privileged context support was added to browsingContext.locateNodes and input.performActions by Holger Benl, and to browsingContext.captureScreenshot by Julian Descottes.
• Julian Descottes fixed the network.getData command to handle 304 – Not Modified responses with no timeouts.

Fluent

• Shout out to flod who’s started to chip away again at migrating .properties files to Fluent!
  • For the first time since we started tracking, there are fewer than 4000 .properties strings in the Firefox source code!

Migration Improvements

• spohl is working on a stack of patches that’ll update the migration workflow for macOS 27 to reduce the number of data access permission warnings that users see

New Tab Page

• We’re testing a few different layout variations in the wild – one of them is a few different takes on “spaces”:

• The MCAB search input is currently being deployed to a small population in the wild to see how it works / is received

• A train-hop is scheduled to be deployed this week which should make widgets available for all users (though for most users, these will be disabled by default – they’ll be available to enable in the customize panel).

• Reem Hamoui removed the Enzyme/Karma test infrastructure from the New Tab Page, which is a CI/dev tooling change with no direct runtime user impact but should reduce test maintenance and flakiness for future user-facing fixes.
• Jack Brown switched New Tab message visibility checks to an IntersectionObserver so messages below the fold are no longer marked as activeNotifications, preventing offscreen messages from being targeted and avoiding unnecessary JS evaluation when not visible.
• Jack Brown cleared activeNotification targeting when navigating away from about:newtab so message targeting no longer persists after leaving the page, preventing carry‑over interactions and incorrect metrics attribution.
• akulyk [a11y] fixed dialog focus containment on the New Tab Page by enforcing a focus trap and proper Tab/Shift-Tab handling, restoring expected keyboard and screenreader workflows for modal dialogs.
• Scott fixed pocket.click and topsite.click to trigger context menus correctly, restoring right-click/long-press context menus on Pocket tiles and Top Sites so users can access actions like open-in-new-window and remove.
• Maxx Crawford updated per-widget Jest fixtures for Stocks, Privacy and Picture of the Day to omit the widgets.enabled flag in test setups Per-widget Jest fixtures for Stocks, Privacy and Picture of the Day omit widgets.enabled, which aligns test fixtures with runtime enablement behavior and reduces CI flakes and regression risk for those widgets; there is no runtime UI change for end users but widget rendering tests should be more reliable.
• Maxx Crawford removed the Sports widget from the New Tab Page and widget picker, which directly removes sports headline/cards from users’ NTP experience (users who had Sports selected will no longer see it) and slightly reduces client-side DOM/paint work and widget surface area for future NTP changes. It also removed about 1MB of image / video assets from the omni.ja / newtab XPI.
• Maxx Crawford added region/locales dynamic control for the Weather widget, allowing users to change the Weather card’s region/locale on New Tab so forecasts and localized labels update immediately.
• Herraj Luhano updated the POTD API contract to return the previous day’s POTD, enabling the New Tab image module to fetch and display yesterday’s Picture of the Day to avoid empty or stale image slots.
• Nina Pypchenko [:nina-py] re-ordered New Tab settings in about:preferences, improving discoverability by placing New Tab controls in a more consistent, prominent location for users managing Start Page options.
• Dre standardized context menu button UI across all widgets, unifying markup, CSS variables and ARIA to make context-menu hit areas and keyboard focus consistent across widget surfaces.
• Dre standardized header typography across all widgets, aligning font sizes, line-heights and tokens so widget headers render consistently on New Tab pages.
• Maxx Crawford updated WallpaperFeatureHighlight to allow for alternate strings to be injected so the New Tab wallpaper feature highlight UI can show injected copy variants (for localization or experiments), which directly changes the text users see in the wallpaper picker/highlight flow and should be monitored for clarification/regression in impressions and CTA click rates.
• David Durfee landed a meta change to enable score-based selection for sponsored tiles in the New Tab experiment, which replaces the previous selection heuristic with a ranking/scoring pipeline so experiment cohorts may see different sponsored tiles on New Tab (affects which ads/content are shown, sponsored impressions/CTR, and A/B metrics for desktop and mobile New Tab surfaces).
• Nina Pypchenko renamed the Stocks widget to “Finance” on the New Tab Page, updating the activity-stream UI/i18n label users see in the widget header.
• Brendan Birdsong adjusted the newtab score-based selection to sum day counts from remote-settings config, which can change which cards/tiles are selected and their ordering for users depending on remote config values.
• Scott Downe removed the discoverystream.optIn-region-weather-config pref from newtab, a config cleanup that does not change runtime New Tab UI or user-visible weather opt-in behavior.
• Irene Ni normalized the layout_name value in New Tab DSCard impression telemetry, ensuring consistent impression records for analytics and A/B experiments without altering the UI seen by users.
• Scott Downe removed the telemetry.structuredIngestion.endpoint pref from newtab, removing a pref-based override for structured-ingestion endpoints (affects developer/testing overrides, not regular user behavior).
• Irene Ni removed unused ImpressionStats dispatches from New Tab DSCard clicks, eliminating redundant telemetry dispatches on DSCard click paths with no UI change.
• Irene Ni normalized Top Sites telemetry keys to their Glean extra names, stabilizing telemetry naming for Top Sites without changing user-visible behavior.
• Dre fixed a slight flash when reusing a previously uploaded wallpaper in the New Tab Page, removing a visible flicker for users who set custom uploaded wallpapers.
• Maxx Crawford added a debug pref/setting to revert region controls, enabling targeted rollbacks/enabled testing for affected-region UI behaviors when the pref is toggled.
• Jared Wein fixed TypeScript errors in newtab/lib blocking inclusion in newtab’s tsconfig.json, resolving a build/tooling blocker (developer-only change; no direct user impact).
• Irene Ni made the Spaces arrow-buttons variant background panel occupy the full page height on the New Tab Page, removing a visual gap and ensuring arrow controls stay aligned with page scroll.
• Alexandre Hanot fixed Ads client initialization on Firefox 157 and older so the Ads client now initializes instead of throwing errors on legacy builds, restoring ad content on affected users’ New Tab Pages.
• Dre prevented the Clocks widget menu button from overlapping clocks on hover by adjusting z-index and hover layout, restoring visibility and correct hit targets on the New Tab Page.
• Irene Ni enabled a widget in the first content position of New Tab sections, updating New Tab rendering logic so a prioritized widget slot is populated in the first content position and becomes visible by default to users.
• Jared Wein enabled type checking for newtab/lib with exception for failing files, adding incremental static-analysis/CI checks to catch regressions in newtab code without changing UI behavior today.
• Maxx Crawford set default enabled value to false for all existing widgets, changing widget metadata/prefs so existing widgets are opt-in and will no longer render for users unless explicitly enabled.
• David Durfee added differential privacy noise to scores in newtab score-based selection, anonymizing per-user signals which will alter ranking/discovery behavior on the New Tab page while underscoring privacy guarantees.
• Brendan Birdsong moved newtab score storage to PersistentCache, persisting scores across sessions and reducing recompute/lookup latency so personalized selections are more stable and faster to load.
• Jared Wein fixed more newtab/lib TypeScript errors so 11 more files can be type-checked, enabling type-checking across newtab/lib (11 files) and lowering regression risk for New Tab Page behavior.
• Dre used useWidgetTelemetry in the Weather widget to standardize telemetry for the Weather widget (New Tab Page), improving diagnostic signals that help us find and fix user-facing widget issues faster.
• Maxx Crawford turned off all New Tab widgets in automation with one pref, allowing automation to run with widgets disabled to reduce flakiness in tests that interact with New Tab UI.
• Dre updated the Focus Timer widget to use useWidgetTelemetry, so Focus Timer telemetry now respects widget-level prefs and will avoid sending unguarded pings—privacy impact only, no UI change.
• Nina Pypchenko [:nina-py] fixed transparent New Tab dialogs when the train-hop is applied to Firefox 158 and 159, restoring dialog opacity/CSS so newtab overlays are readable again when train-hop is enabled on those releases.

Picture-in-Picture

• kpatenio fixed a bug on Windows and Linux where clicking a previous control overrides the Space play/pause shortcut.
• kpatenio landed a few patches to make keyboard navigation better when the playback speed control is enabled (Bug 2055070, Bug 2074319).
• As of Nightly 159, the PiP player UI has been updated for Nova. Aside from being visually consistent with Nova, scrubbers and settings panels now have better contrast on High Contrast Mode.

Search and Urlbar

Urlbar

• Dao landed a patch to show the “Search tabs” keyboard shortcut in the search mode switcher menu: 2078113

• Logan Rosen changed the Accel+Shift+A shortcut from the Add-ons Manager to Search Tabs: 1666654. Dao followed up by notifying people who used the old shortcut that it moved and revised the wording of that message: 2077823, 2079208
• James added an option to skip the menu when tabbing through the address bar, in both the address bar and the preferences page: 2064708, 2068609
• Dao fixed a bug so that entering an address in search mode now navigates to that URL: 2036347
• Dao fixed two urlbar.bounce telemetry bugs: 2069403, 2076827
• Caleb fixed a bug where the address bar results dropdown covered the calculator tail150 game: 2077358
• Daisuke fixed a bug where search terms in the address bar moved when pressing Enter or when edited: 2074921
• Dao fixed the search engine button being cut off in the Search dropdown with Nova enabled: 2074871
• Daisuke fixed the search switcher’s active button color being too strong with low text contrast in Nova: 2068504
• Emilio fixed the Quick Actions background button missing in the Light theme on Ubuntu in Nova: 2076191
• Moritz continued with MCAB (multi-context address bar) follow-on work: 2078231, 2078658, 2078672.
• Moritz also enabled TypeScript type checking for UrlbarView and UrlbarBaseInput: 2077545, 2077543
• Dao significantly improved the address bar docs, including how to add a new search surface end to end, how results and providers work across the process boundary, and how to debug and log the address bar:

 Search

• Caleb fixed a bug where the address bar swallowed the first character typed into it if you typed too quickly: 1953361
• Mark continued working on the new search config, search-config-v3: 2063279, 2063264

Places

• Dao fixed a bug where the bookmark creation/editing panel had no keyboard shortcut mnemonic for the Save button: 1877510

Storybook/Reusable Components/Acorn Design System

• Dialogs in about: pages now match Nova designs more closely
• Moz- widgets should now have types found when querying the element with document.querySelector(“moz-button”) and TS is configured
• A11y fixes for profiles dialog, page nav keyboard handling (no longer steals Ctrl+arrows)
