Summary
Debian follows the extended support releases (ESR) of Firefox. Support
for the 91.x series has ended, so starting with this update we're now
following the 102.x releases.
Between 91.x and 102.x, Firefox has seen a number of feature updates.

For the stable distribution (bullseye), these problems have been fixed in
version 102.3.0esr-1~deb11u1.
We recommend that you upgrade your firefox-esr packages.
