Firefox zero day

[Benjamin Smith]

Firefox released a fix yesterday, and I don't see the latest Firefox after a 
yum update on Fedora 21. Should I be leaving the repo and getting a binary 
directly, or is this coming soon?

Thanks,

Ben

In the meantime, go into about:config and disable pdfjs as a
workaround.

Well, your mirror did not get the update, yet. So, what else is new?

I rsync all updates from my closest mirror to my internal LAN mirror via  
cron, overnight. This is probably a coincidence, but it looks like last  
night, at the time I usually rsync things over, the rsynced-from mirror was  
only "partially cooked". Had to kick off another rsync this morning, to pull  
in the complete set of updates, including Firefox.
