Re: Warning: 0-Day vulnerability in Java 7 quote:
Lastly, starting this week in Aurora and Beta we’ll begin adding the components of click-to-play, a Firefox security control that helps protect users against outdated and vulnerable plugins. We anticipate this new security feature to be fully operational by Firefox 18.
Note that currently, Java blockage looks to be broken in NoScript, in Aurora/Beta, so do not count on that.
You can enable (the Mozilla preference) plugins.click_to_play in about:config. |

1 edit | Aurora, so Firefox 17.
I haven't actually looked at FF 16.
I did look at FF 15.0, & it is working as expected with that.
Edit:
I had an older (July 12) version of 16, & it is working there.
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:16.0) Gecko/16.0 Firefox/16.0
Though don't know if that is still the case with a more recent build?
Edit2:
And working here also:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:16.0) Gecko/20120827 Firefox/16.0 |
