Just found out my copy of foxy proxy standard, wappalyzer and one other, cookie manager were no longer working because this message, Installation aborted because the add-on appears to be corrupt. Updated to a newer version of Firefox in Kali Linux but have the same, message,Installation aborted because the add-on appears to be corrupt. Was just working a few days ago . I even did an update in Kali to see if that would solve the problem .Same message. Used CURL to update to current version of Firefox , supposedly, same, Installation aborted because the add-on appears to be corrupt. Do think I need to renew any certificates here because in WIndows 11 it updated automatically without problems. What do you think.THX

Hi, your Firefox that you posted with seems to be Firefox 115. Could you check the precise version number on the Troubleshooting Information page. The following article will get you there:

Use the Troubleshooting Information page to help fix Firefox issues

You need at least one of these:

  • version 115.13.0esr or later in the 115 series
  • version 128 or higher

Ref. Update Firefox to prevent add-ons issues from root certificate expiration

Klai Linux is Debian based and I know Debian Buster is eol with no more package updates and the last Firefox update before Debian Buster being eol was Firefox 115.12.0esr. So I wonder if that is the issue.
