Description :
WebKitGTK is the port of the WebKit web rendering engine to the

Update Information:
* Improve GStreamer multimedia playback across the board with improved codec
selection logic, better handling of latency, and improving frame discard to
avoid audio/video desynchronization, among other fixes. * Disable HLS media
playback by default, which makes web sites use MSE instead. If needed
WEBKIT_GST_ENABLE_HLS_SUPPORT=1 can be set in the environment to enable it back.
* Disable threaded rendering in GTK4 builds by default, as it was causing
crashes. * Fix MediaSession API not showing artwork images. * Fix MediaSession
MPRIS usage when running inside a Flatpak sandbox. * Fix input element controls
to correctly scale when applying a zoom factor different than the default. *
Fix leakage of Web processes in certain situations. * Fix several crashes and
rendering issues. * Security fixes: CVE-2023-23517, CVE-2023-23518,
CVE-2022-42826, and many additional security issues
