Mozilla has provided an update to Firefox version 118.0.1 to close a vulnerability that is already being used to attack Chrome users.

For the second time this month, Mozilla has to patch a 0-day vulnerability in Firefox that initially seemed to affect only Chrome and its derivatives.

Yes it’s being exploited, yes you should update, but the vulnerability is not actively exploited in Firefox as far as we (they) know of.
