It's not in Debian, technically...

https://github.com/philwhineray/firehol-fork

Incidentally, firehol upstream isn't maintained any more. (Or wasn't
when Phil needed IPv6 support.) Also, firewall packages which don't
*explicitly* support IPv6 will not protect you from attackers using
IPv6; iptables and ip6tables are two separate commands. (One nice
thing about Phil's fork is that it defaults to applying policies to
both IPv4 and IPv6 where possible.)
