| Summary | 0003536: Firefox Update Needed | ||||
| Description | 45.3.0 needs to be upgraded. Among other security problems, I am having issues adding annotations to youtube videos. I make Youtube videos about Pentesting with Kali. Personally, I think it has something to do with html5/flash. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | Login to your youtube channel and try and add any annotations to any of your videos. | ||||
| Additional Information | All buttons are grayed out, and no video preview even appears, as you can see in the attached screenshot | ||||
 |
I installed the add-on QuickJava 2.1.0 Enable/Disable Javascript, Java, Flash, WebGL, WebRTC, Silverlight, Animated Images, Cookies, Images, CSS, and Proxy from Toolbar. This seems to make the grayed out areas appear, I can now click it, with no response however. The video also doesn't appear in that black box from the screen shot. |

|
Apparently also an issue in Chromium Version 52.0.2743.116 built on Debian stretch/sid, running on Debian Kali Linux Rolling |
|
|
Fixed: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree Can't we include this package? |
 |
Due to reasons like this I think. Can't remember where I read on Kali's sites about how flash is a security risk. Here is a recent problem that happened |
 |
Sorry we will not install flash by default. |
