Flash vulnerable
Posted: 20 Jan 2015, 10:41
I'm running porteus kiosk 3.2.0 with flash plugin enabled (not legacy).
Browsing is limited to a single domain, and one of the pages uses Flash (which can't be avoided).
Firefox is set to restart after 10 minutes of inactivity.
After a short time the kiosk throws a grey page with "Flash plugin is vulnerable and should be updated". Below the text is an "update now" link.
On clicking the link, all you get is a blank white page, which is expected since the flash update page is not whitelisted.
When the browser is on the error page or the white screen, the browser restart does not happen.
Is it possible to force my kiosk to ignore the update?
Will using legacy flash plugin resolve this issue?
Can this method be integrated into Porteus Kiosk by default:
