Mozilla states in their blog that from the upcoming versions of Firefox 3.5.3 and Firefox 3.0.14 onwards Firefox users will be warned if their version of Adobe Flash Player plugin is not up-to-date. This will be a welcome add since old Flash versions are often exploited in cyber criminals' attacks. "For now our focus is on the Adobe Flash Player both because of its popularity and because some studies have shown that as many as 80% of users currently have an out of date version", is stated in the blog.
Mozilla plans to work with other plugin vendors to provide similar checks for their products in the future too.
