I think this bug may related to my environment because not only websites of mozilla are affected but more other sites also.

And an interesting thing is that not website of mozilla are affected.

List of affected:
bugzilla.mozilla.org
www.mozilla.org
cdn.mdn.mozilla.net

List of not affected:
addons.mozilla.org
developer.mozilla.org(css and js are served at cdn.mdn.mozilla.net which are affected)

I prefer to consider that there must be something wrong with my firefox and not a mozilla bug.
Could you please instruct me providing more info and help me solve the issue?

I don't know if upgrading to version 58 manually would solve the issue so I'd like to stay at this version before I could upgrade firefox via 'apt upgrade'.

Can you please try and see if you can reproduce the issue when running in safe mode? https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode

My guess is this is due to an extension you have installed.
