So I went to update my apps and was greeted with these warnings in FDroid. A quick and basic search online and in various communities yielded no news regarding a major compromise in Fennec and Mull, does anyone know more about this or have you seen any news regarding a vulnerability? Curious if this is a false positive or if there is something going on with firefox forks.

    Or you can install directly from Divest via FFupdater, or from their github (I use Obtainium for that).

      How do you use obtainium to download from their repo? I’m trying but can’t seem to make it work.

        When you got add the repo in Obtainium in the overrides section choose Fdroid Third party repo. Then in the app name field type mull

        I apologize. I didn’t see that my Obtainium was actually pulling from the fdroid repo. I was able to add it to Obtainium from the Divest repo: https://divestos.org/fdroid/official/us.spotco.fennec_dos_21320020.apk

        But I really doubt that it will trigger updates, since it’s tied to the current version apk.

        I update my browsers and K9 via FFupdater, that’s where my confusion came from. And I thank you for calling me our, I just removed Mull from my Obtainium.
