So, I wanted update the Sonoff ZBDongle-E dongle as it's recommended in this post: https://www.zigbee2mqtt.io/devices/ZBDongle-E.html.
The web flasher couldn't connect to the dongle under Windows.
Found how to flash it with a console tool under Linux: https://community.home-assistant.io/t/issue-flashing-sonoff-zbdongle-e/654946/3

Error: Failed to probe running application type
Seems I flashed a wrong firmware. Download a right one from the Silabs repository.
Had to reset the bootloader and flash the correct image. Can't find the exact command, it's something like:
Now the Zigbee2MQTT detects it:
