Mozilla: Update Firefox immediately
Briefly

Mozilla has issued a warning to all Firefox users to immediately update their browser due to the impending expiration of an important security certificate. This certificate expiration could lead to severe security implications, making users vulnerable to risks such as the failure to display security warnings about stolen passwords and malicious websites. Other browsers like Tor, Librewolf, and Waterfox are similarly impacted, emphasizing the critical nature of this update to ensure ongoing safety while browsing the web.
Expired certificates have a significant impact on user experience. Mozilla is urging Firefox users to update their browsers immediately due to an expiring certificate that affects browser security.
An older certificate is set to expire on Friday, causing potential security risks for users who haven't updated their Firefox browser. This could disable warnings about stolen passwords.
The expiration of this certificate doesn't just affect Firefox; other browsers like Tor and Waterfox also rely on it, which heightens the urgency for users to update promptly.
Bleeping Computer reports that without the update, users may face warnings around malicious websites being disabled, which could lead to compromised online security.
