[Mozilla Enterprise] ESR 68.6.0 update requires admin rights?

Hello!

In the past, Firefox ESR seems to have been able to keep itself updated on our macOS machines even when running under a non-admin user, provided that user has read/write permission to the app bundle itself. However, we’ve seen a few reports that users are being prompted for administrative credentials after launching 68.6.0 the first time.

Is this expected? Is there a workaround, or something we can do to prep for the update such that non-admin users can continue to operate as they have in the past?

Thanks,
