>With the exception of LTS releases, if you haven't got firefox 126 yet because you're on a "stable" package manager, I'd encourage you to promptly download firefox from mozilla.org (which will come with auto-updates) and uninstall your package managers insecure version.

Which distros have this problem? AFAIK debian-based distros (eg. debian, ubuntu) package firefox ESR which is kept up to date with security patches.

At one point I realized Arch's firefox was greater than a week out of date and I promptly did exactly that. I don't know if it was a regular occurrence or something weird with that release though.

Nixos have this problem a bit. I didn't rebuild my system in a while and my Firefox is really old at this point. Well, time to update my system.
