After a year, Firefox finally stops crashing on Intel's Raptor Lake CPUs — Mozilla releases new version patch critical flaw on Intel 13th-gen and 14th-gen CPUs
Mozilla has released Firefox version 151.01, resolving a year-long critical bug that caused the browser to crash on Intel's Raptor Lake CPUs. The issue was traced to instability in Intel's 13th and 14th generation processors, which sometimes led to incorrect data reads. While Intel released microcode updates to mitigate the problem, the root cause was linked to physical degradation from excessive voltage and heat, with Intel extending warranties for affected customers.
