Where is that mentioned? Or are these just your concerns?
Just curious - but why do you disable uBO instead of creating an exception filter? That's pretty simple using the logger.
As one comment probably rightly says: Which means that the "Block Outsider Intrusion into LAN" list in uBO would protect you against such exploits.
Yes, Ubuntu is not a rolling release distro but maintains its own kernel where security fixes and other critical fixes are backported. The 6.8...
I suggest that you use ubO's logger which lets you easily and comfortably create (exception) filters. Makes life much easier if you're not...

Actually OT in this tread but: I don't really see the need for Noscript given that it's easy in uBO to block 3rd-party scripts in Dynamic...

Possibly? 3rd-party microcode is usually closed source. I doubt that Microsoft is doing reverse engineering for that code. I'm not saying that...
If the microcode/firmware of your vendor contains ransomware (either because the vendor itself has become malicious or its download sites are...
How is this related to browser settings? o_O

This is actually a well-known drawback of MV3 extensions mentioned in the uBOL-FAQ.
Yes, you're right. My remark was too general. So this is even more so an advantage of passkeys.
Right, but nevertheless passkeys make data breaches less likely. If an attacker somehow gets your password (because it's too weak or for another...
The European Union has launched its own vulnerability database which is still in its beta phase, though: https://euvd.enisa.europa.eu/
Should be supported as an Ubuntu derivative, however, the Cinnamon DE is not covered.
A couple of days ago Firejail 0.9.74 was released with many new features and bugfixes. Make sure that you're using the latest version.
So? That's actually a good thing. Most browser updates (not only for Firefox) fix one or more (and often zero-day) security vulnerability. As the...
Yes, but how is this different from installing the ProtonVPN add-on in other browsers? While covering the whole traffic with a VPN is certainly a...
Well, Chrome is similarly affected. It's good that they fix (particularly security) issues ASAP.
That's disputable. There are password managers like KeePass which can be used without extensions. So why don't you tell us how you use them? We...
That depends on your threat scenario. Yes, Apparmor with apparmor.d. But your distro must be supported. And I recommend against the latter of...
Well, I respect Tavis Ormandy but this site is rather old. It's not mentioned when it was last updated but I remember that I read it years ago....
It's installed on all my devices anyhow (as I need it regardless if I use passkeys or not). So where is the problem?
