Pale Moon 28.9.1 changelog:

Re-imported the ExtensionStorage js module for use by browser extensions.
Fixed an issue with the WebRequest module having erroneously un-processed build directives in it. This might have caused some subtle breakage.
Removed the use of high-resolution Windows system timers from the layout refresh driver; this should help with some performance and battery life issues.
Fixed an issue where various parts of hardware acceleration weren't properly linked when changing the option from preferences.
If you have changed the preferences option to "use hardware acceleration when available" between 28.9.0 and this release, it is recommended that you go into preferences and toggle the option off/on to the preferred setting to correct any discrepancies.
Fixed an issue with building the user-agent string using the build date as ID.
Fixed an issue with the release of document content viewers (CVE-2020-6819). DiD
Fixed an issue with handling functions with rest parameters. DiD
