From my understanding, we currently have Double Free protection in the form of MOZ_DIAGNOSTIC_ASSERT in Nightly and Dev Edition; but in Beta/Release, the protection is limited to Debug builds (i.e. not versions users are running.) It would be good to switch these to the release builds; the goal is provide security with this feature besides just detecting bugs in testing.
