Just adding this from the Design Document

"
Disable Updates During Tor

Option: extensions.torbutton.no_updates

This setting causes Torbutton to disable the four Firefox update
settings during Tor usage: extensions.update.enabled,
app.update.enabled, app.update.auto, and browser.search.update. These
prevent the browser from updating extensions, checking for Firefox
upgrades, and checking for search plugin updates while Tor is enabled.

This setting satisfies the Update Safety requirement.
"

The Update Safety requirement is:
"
The browser SHOULD NOT perform unauthenticated updates or upgrades via Tor.
