Hello!

I'm IT student and for my security class I require to find an exploit, exploit a system, and then learn how this exploit works.

I picked JRE 7u5 exploit.

I downloaded that version of java from oracle archives but the problem is that I require a browser plugin.

I tried to search for plugin on Google for more than few hours but I can't find anything useful...

I though I could post this question here since there was this version of java released on plugin page once.

My question is, could you please release JRE 7u5 plugin for Firefox please? Or do you know where I could find it? I really hoped I could use this exploit but the difficulty lays with finding the right plugin.

Please give me a feedback how I could get JRE plugin for Firefox or any other browser!

I will be using Windows XP SP 2 VM.

Thank you in advance!

The Plugin comes with Java. Have you looked in the Addons Manager {Ctrl + Shft + A} > Plugins for that Plugin? Then you can Enable it - (Firefox automatically disables that addon, but the user can enable it himself.)

Hi,

You're going to find that there's only a very small group of people that want to install a program with a known exploit, and the developers aren't going to be keen on allowing ongoing access to faulty code.

Best bet would be to look for the source code. On the Oracle website there's the source for JDK 6; have a look around there. You may have to drop back a version to get access.

Ian.
