Based on the Firefox UserAgent you used to post this thread, you are using the old ubuntu package build of Firefox 113.0

Based on that version I would not be surprised if your version of or flavour of Ubuntu distro is EOL with no more package updates.

If that is the case then you need to either get your system updated to a new supported Linux distro whether Ubuntu or another or you could use the Firefox tarballs from Mozilla as it gets internal Firefox updates from Mozilla.

The Firefox tarball from Mozilla say https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/desktop-release/ is just an archive. There is no package or installer setup like you get on Windows.

The basics is you extract the tarball then run the firefox script or firefox-bin to start Firefox. You can create desktop or such launcher shortcut to it and there are Firefox icons in the firefox/browser/chrome/icons/default/ folder. The chrome in this case has nothing to do with the Google Chrome browser. Oh and make sure the firefox folder has read/writer permissions for the user to get internal Firefox updates from Mozilla otherwise you will have to do it say as root. A popular place is to have firefox folder in /home/~ if you are the only user.


Also one package you should make sure you have installed after you update Firefox is FFmpeg so you can fully support HTML5 players used for video, audio, games since the Flash player plugin is no longer used.
