I am running Ubuntu Gnome 15.04, with Gnome Shell, and 3.16, although I only just upgraded to Gnome 3.16 from Gnome 3.14. And sometime during the upgrade I suddenly noticed this in Firefox:

enter image description here

It just suddenly appeared before the upgrade was finished (it was in the unpacking stage), and after looking here it appears to be something to do with syncing, but I don't use syncing, so what is this? And why did I suddenly get it? Also, after a restart, it has disappeared, and my syncing settings seam off as usual.

Information Update:

It couldn't be related to this in any way now could it: CVE-2015-4495?

I got to the bottom of this issue myself, for next time it appeared I clicked on it and it said that I should restart Firefox to install updates (or something like that), so it appears to appear when plug-ins are updated for that was happening at the time.
