So it would be nice if there would be a way that Mozilla can protect IcedTea users as well. tells me IвЂ™m using Java Version: 1.7.0_u9 from Oracle Corporation but IвЂ™m having IcedTea Plugin installed (Linux Mint 14). The CERT advisory and vulnerability note only specify Oracle Java with a new feature from version 7, so it looks like IcedTea will not be affected.

I think there are a lot of rough edges being exposed here.ДЄnswering one of my own questions, OracleвЂ™s advisory indicates that java 6, 5, and 4 are not affected, although all updates of Java 7 through update 10 are, and the just released update 11 provides a temporary patch similar to MozillaвЂ™s plugin blocking function. So, is IcedTea not vulnerable? (Heard some rumor that suggests otherwise.)ДЄnd why doesnвЂ™t java show as a plugin? JDK installed globally, perhaps? OpenJDK Client VM (build 14.0-b16, mixed mode, sharing) Well, I read Japanese sort of well, actually operate in mixed mode a lot of the time, but a lot of my foreign national friends living in Japan donвЂ™t.ДЄutomatically selecting the language by browser setting and/or location, and failing to provide a language switch link/button on the page is so, well, вЂ™90s.Д«TW, I go to that page and it tells me my gnash is an out of date flash. That is WAY better than the ordeal everyone was going through just a week or so ago with the last Java update confusion. It respects a users rights while also offers security.

Thank you for making this troublesome add-on issue a вЂњclick-to-playвЂќ block rather than a full block. ThatвЂ™s a Windows specific issue, and Firefox is still blocking the patched version of Java on Macs too.

ThatвЂ™s apparently a bug from Oracle, try removing all versions of the JRE, then install just 7u11. Even a total uninstall of everythinhg java, reboot, reinstall and reboot again still didnвЂ™t enable the java plugin in neither IE nor FF. Might be something is bugged when you installed u11 with FX installed in the frist place. In addition to this, you might need to close the browser, open the Java control panel, go to security, untick the вЂњEnable Java content in the browser, press OK, then the java control panel again, tick the same checkkbox and press OK. Workaround: Uninstall the standalone JavaFX 2.x.

Perhaps the block includes any Java plugin that is identified as SE 7 U5, regardless of the version number? If this update does fix the vulnerability, then the scope of the block should be narrowed. Firefox shows the plugin as version Java(TM) Platform SE 7 U5 10.5.1.255. 70 comments on вЂњProtecting Users Against Java VulnerabilityвЂќДЇirefox is blocking the plugin component of JRE 7 Update 11.
