Package : ublock-origin Version : 1.67.0+dfsg-1~deb11u1 Debian Bug : 1108878

Ublock-origin is a lightweight and efficient ads, malware and trackers blocker.
The new upstream version improves the user experience and ad / malware filter capabilities of this popular browser addon. It also fixes a bug in the Filter lists page which prevented it from rendering normal.

For Debian 11 bullseye, this problem has been fixed in version 1.67.0+dfsg-1~deb11u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your ublock-origin packages.

For the detailed security status of ublock-origin please refer to its security tracker page at:
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/ublock-origin
