You can always remove and reinstall the RPM using DNF, am I missing something?

Speak of the devil... continuing through my email:

Product : Fedora 38
Version : 123.0.1

So maybe this was a doh! release and they're already pushing out a
quick fix? But ... uh... 123.0.1?
#rpm -qi firefox

Huh?? If 123.0.1 was just released, what the heck am I doing with a
123.0.2? I'm starting to smell a package maintainer mixup, someone
pushing out a beta by accident?
Luckily I still have the release notice for 123.0.2:

I may now be in a situation where dnf will not update the rpm! It
usually will ignore older rpm files (by version). Ugh, there might be
some manual dnf/rpm finagling coming my way.
Now I just have to wait a few hours until the latest rpm hits my
mirrors...
