two java plugins show up in add-ons
The add-ons page shows two java plug-ins; Java(TM) plug-in 11.11.2 Next Generation Java Plug-in 11.11.2 for Mozilla browsers Java(TM) plug-in 11.5.2 Next Generation Java Plug-in 11.5.2 for Mozilla browsers
My plugins directory (~/.mozilla/plugins) contains: % ls -l ~/.mozilla/plugins lrwxrwxrwx 1 gxineplugin.so -> /usr/lib/gxine/gxineplugin.so lrwxrwxrwx 1 libflashplayer.so -> /usr/lib/flashplugin-installer/libflashplayer.so lrwxrwxrwx 1 libnpjp2.so -> /opt/java/jdk/jdk1.8.0_11/jre/lib/amd64/libnpjp2.so* lrwxrwxrwx 1 libnpsoplugin.so -> /local/opt/libreoffice4.2/program/libnpsoplugin.so* % ls -lL ~/.mozilla/plugins -rw-r--r-- 1 18560 Apr 9 2013 gxineplugin.so -rw-r--r-- 1 19237552 Aug 13 07:51 libflashplayer.so -rwxr-xr-x 1 216608 Jun 16 17:37 libnpjp2.so* -rwxr-xr-x 1 31279 Jun 12 07:22 libnpsoplugin.so*

Thanks, that was part of the solution, because it listed only the locations of the actual plugins, not the symbolic links that point to them, which was the problem.
I found all locations of the plugin by running:
% locate -0 libnpjp2.so | xargs -0 ls -lt
The plugin was, besides being in the JDK and JRE plugins directories, symbolically linked in:
- ~/.mozilla/plugins
- ~/.mozilla/firefox/plugins
- ~/.firefox/plugins
- /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins/
The last 3 of these were pointing to old JRE's. I deleted my redundant ones (keeping ~/.mozilla/plugins), and updated the plugin links in /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins/. After restarting firefox, only the latest plugin shows up!

You can find the installation path of all plugins on the about:plugins page.
