Did you mention that this user is on Mac OS X 10.9 ?

As you can read in my above post, Mac OS X is no longer supported by Widevine CDM 4.10.2209.1 and I'm afraid that this is also the case for 32-bit Linux as I'm not seeing an update to this latest Widevine version.

Unfortunately, Widevine CDM 4.10.2209.1 no longer supports macOS 10.9 and 10.10 (minimum is 10.11). See:

Note: The current version of Google Widevine is no longer compatible with older macOS versions such as OS X 10.9 and 10.10. Only macOS versions 10.11 and above are supported.


You may have to disable GMP update to prevent re-installing Widevine CDM 4.10.2209.1 by setting the update pref to an empty string.

Hi

I have been speaking to our developers and if you update to 78.1 (ESR), you should find that this issue is resolved.

This is suddenly happening to me on Firefox 92.0 (64-bit) running on Windows 10 21H1. Worked on 9/12, failed consistently starting 9/13, (possibly coinciding with auto-update from FF 91.0.2 to FF 92.0). I'm using WidevineCDM version 4.10.2209.1 to watch Xfinity stream recordings. Have submitted 3 crash reports via FF.
