+* Mozilla will backport security bugs qualified as [https://wiki.mozilla.org/Security_Severity_Ratings "Critical" and "High"] to the ESR where feasible (there may be cases where a backport cannot be applied with reasonable effort, and those cases are expected to be exceptional). Other security and stability backports to the ESR will be included at Mozilla's discretion.
