 There are a bunch of code changes regarding the updater code that are not
 in Firefox 52.1.xesr but Firefox 52.2.0esr (or code that could become that
 version).

 Here are some of the changesets we should double check:

 https://hg.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla-
 esr52/rev/e72789cd4486e5d309a127b6790398ca4689f44b
 https://hg.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla-
 esr52/rev/fe41acbfab790675cee9f7305b7ca0db2ca6637b

 https://hg.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla-
 esr52/rev/61066f53c6e0234c2f55ae43329d4b8d2b7b3b57
 https://hg.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla-
 esr52/rev/c15b2a5abf1ca5c4169ef6340be56a25b5ec4f45

 https://hg.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla-
 esr52/rev/3a49fe1696720a9586e37ab5d37d886987820b46

 There might be more. Skimming over them I think we should be unaffected as
 they are maintenance service related which we disable. But I might have
 missed other changesets or read the code wrongly. mcs: I have access to
 the two security bugs. If you need further information, let me know.
