 latest TB, but perhaps I'm missing something?

 Interesting. Do you get those messages if you use a Torbutton .xpi with
 the update URL changed to `https://0.0.0.0/`? One difference could be that
 this was only problematic for XPCOM extensions but is not an issue anymore
 for WebExtensions. If that's the case, great! Then let's switch to the
 HTTPS URL.
