"We found a vulnerability..."
(lemmy.sdf.org)
Can I get more info on why these are showing up? I've never seen such a thing on F-Droid before.
Are these two from the same maintainer? If not, considering that they both use Firefox Android as their base, does this mean there is a vulnerability in Firefox Android?
There was and it was fixed by the looks of it. Guessing these apps have not urgently pulled the fixes in and released an update, so F-droid is urging people not to use the apps until so
they pulled the fixes, but couldn't build because google fucked up the NDK. my other comment has more details
Yes, there was a remote code execution vulnerability in the CSS engine of firefox a little while ago. If you're on desktop version 131 or lower, update to 131.0.3 when possible. I don't know how the versioning works for the Android versions here...
173? What happened to firefox versions? We just started the 130s
shit, woops. I've got memory issues, my bad. Let me fix that rq. Thanks for catching it.

Yeah that seems about right.
Android has the same versions as desktop here, which is why there is no differentiation. The main chunk of firefox is platform independent (and even used in thunderbird too).
So any firefox android app and fork thereof needs that version 131.0.3+ too (unless it is esr which is 128 currently).
