Subject: [devuan-dev] bug#719: Firefox-esr 91 have some vulnerabilities and apt-get can not delivery a newer version
Package: firefox-esr
Version: 91


 Hi !


 Since I read the firefox 91 have some serious bug/vuln issues


 I perform an update on my system


:~$sudo apt update
Get:1 http://deb.devuan.org/merged chimaera InRelease [33.5 kB]
Fetched 33.5 kB in 3s (9,913 B/s)

Ready to upgrade firefox

$ sudo apt-get install firefox-esr
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Reading state information... Done
firefox-esr is already the newest version (91.13.0esr-1~deb11u1).
firefox-esr set to manually installed.


I notice the update only give me the 91.13.0esr version

 If I take a look on the site[1] the 91.13.0esr version is vulnerable
