Samsung is publishing some firmware but not this. (https://fwupd.org/lvfs/vendors/#samsung, https://github.com/fwupd/fwupd/issues/5477)

  $ fwupdmgr get-updates
  Devices with no available firmware updates: 
   • SSD 980 PRO 2TB

It would be good to put some pressure on Samsung to use the Linux Vendor Firmware Service. I just opened a support ticket about it.

fwupd is at least manually adding a warning about the affected firmware. https://github.com/fwupd/fwupd/pull/5481

Oops, you're correct. Looking through my shell history, it seems I manually downloaded and installed the firmware update in March of 2022. Here are the commands I ran:

    curl -O https://semiconductor.samsung.com/resources/software-resources/Samsung_SSD_980_PRO_5B2QGXA7.iso
    mkdir /mnt/iso
    sudo mount -v -o loop ./Samsung_SSD_980_PRO_5B2QGXA7.iso /mnt/iso/
    mkdir /tmp/fwupdate
    cd /tmp/fwupdate
    gzip -dc /mnt/iso/initrd | cpio -idv --no-absolute-filenames
    cd root/fumagician/
    sudo ./fumagician
