Overview

Our goal is to get as many people who use Firefox to also update their plugins to improve the security of their systems. We want to do this in the Firefox 3.6 time frame. Suggested path is:

  • Maintain a list of common plugins and versions.
  • Offer a page on mozilla.com that checks plugin versions and offers links to updated versions of those plugins.
  • Use the plugin blocklist capabilities in Firefox to push users to update.

Non-goals

  • Automatic downloading and updating of plugins

Things We Test

List the tests we have where applicable:

  • Unit tests
  • Reftests
  • Manual Tests
  • Mozmill
  • ...

Things We Don't Test
