+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #967954 +++

We need to make the Unity Web Player (all versions) click to play to address bug 967954. The plugin developers are working on a fix and a future version may not need to be CtP. The very next update, however, will contain only a mitigation and not a complete fix so we probably want CtP for that one, too.
I need to know the plugin information for all platforms. On Mac OS, here's what I get for the latest version:

    File: Unity Web Player.plugin
    Path: /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/Unity Web Player.plugin
    Version: UnityPlayer version 3.5.0f4

I need the equivalent data on Linux and Windows to stage the block.

I don't see a Linux plugin available.
Benjamin is correct; Unity does not ship a Linux version of the Web Player.

Do you just need the latest version or as many versions as we can find?

I think that between comment #1 and comment #2 there's enough information. Thanks, anyway.
The blocks have been staged:

https://addons-dev.allizom.org/en-US/firefox/blocked/p539
https://addons-dev.allizom.org/en-US/firefox/blocked/p541

They are both set for versions 0 to 4.5.0, and currently set with the "update unavailable" option. QA, please test on Windows and Mac OS with the latest version of the plugin installed.

I just tried testing this with Firefox 27.0 on Window 7 64-bit and Unity 4.3.4.31067 and it's not working. Unity demos from http://unity3d.com/gallery/demos/live-demos# continue to load. I do not see the above block IDs in the blocklist file in my profile nor the application folder.
Flags: needinfo?(anthony.s.hughes)
To clarify, my steps are:

1. Start Firefox with a new profile
2. Open about:config
3. Change extensions.blocklist.interval to 10
4. Change extensions.blocklist.itemURL, replacing addons.mozilla.org with addons-dev.allizom.org
5. Restart Firefox
6. Open browser console and execute:
> Components.classes["@mozilla.org/extensions/blocklist;1"].getService(Components.interfaces.nsITimerCallback).notify(null);
7. Load the unity demos

Expected: Unity demos are click-to-play

Result: Unity demos load

The pref you want to change is extensions.blocklist.url, not extensions.blocklist.itemURL

Thanks Jorge. This is now showing as click-to-play on Windows. I'll now test Mac OSX.
I'm getting a different experience with Mac OSX.

When I initially load the demo page I'm presented with the Mixed Content Blocking icon in the awesomebar. After updating the blocklist and reloading the page it's still there. If I click on this icon to allow content the demo loads. This is in contrast to Windows which does not show the Mixed Content Blocking icon and presents me with the Click-to-Play UI instead.

I'm not sure how to proceed...

Paul, if we get an answer/resolution to comment 11 can you please continue the testing overnight? Thank you.

The latest Unity version from https://unity3d.com/webplayer is 4.3.4f1, and it's not blocked on FF 27, Mac OS X 10.8.5.

I can't reproduce this, FF 27, Mac OS X 10.8.5.
I just realized the version string has some text at the start, which breaks the version validation. I just switched to a regular expression test for the description, so we'll need testing again.

This is dependent on the string being used in the description, so I think it would be useful to find old version of the plugin on Mac OS to see whether it has changed.

Paul, can you take care of this on Monday?

Judging by those results, we can only block the 4.0 branch on Mac OS because that's when they began using the description field. Or we can just drop the restriction and block all versions, including future ones.

Benjamin, what do you think?
Flags: needinfo?(benjamin)
If necessary we should issue blocks for mac-unity with an empty description or if the version is < 4.3.5.
Flags: needinfo?(benjamin)
OK, the staged block now should cover empty descriptions and anything < 4.3.5 on Mac OS. QA, please test again.
Works fine, with one exception (latest version):
    File: npUnity3D32.dll
    Path: C:\Users\paul.silaghi\AppData\LocalLow\Unity\WebPlayer\loader\npUnity3D32.dll
    Version: 4.3.5.32006
    State: Enabled (STATE_VULNERABLE_NO_UPDATE)
    Unity Player 4.3.5f1
- is blocked on Windows

while

    File: Unity Web Player.plugin
    Path: /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/Unity Web Player.plugin
    Version: UnityPlayer version 4.3.5f1
    State: Enabled
    Unity Web Player version 4.3.5f1. (c) 2013 Unity Technologies ApS. All rights reserved.
- is not blocked on Mac OSX
Yes, I initially thought the block should go up to version 4.5.0. I just fixed that, and I'm moving the blocks to prod.
The blocks are now live:

I won't have time to test this today since I'm focused on testing Firefox 28.0b6 so we can ship today. Paul, can you test the live blocks tonight?

Now, besides 4.3.5, 4.3.4 is also not blocked on Windows.
    File: npUnity3D32.dll
    Path: C:\Users\paul.silaghi\AppData\LocalLow\Unity\WebPlayer\loader\npUnity3D32.dll
    Version: 4.3.4.31067
    State: Enabled
    Unity Player 4.3.4f1

Everything is ok on Mac.
Flags: needinfo?(paul.silaghi)
Made a small correction that should block 4.3.4 on Windows. Please check it again (no rush).

Unity Player < 4.3.5 is now blocked correctly on Windows and Mac OS X.

Strangely enough "plugincheck" lists "Unity PlayerUnity Player 4.3.3f1" (Windows) as "Vulnerable" but the entry itself is under the "Unknown Plugin" heading (with a "Research" button). MAybe thats related to the "no update available" attribute?
Flags: needinfo?(cbook)
Flags: needinfo?(cbook)
Unity is up to 4.5.5. Is this version still vulnerable?

Either way, the data for the page https://blocklist.addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/blocked/p556 needs to be updated to either include the current version or allow updating to the current version.
Yes, 4.5.5 is still vulnerable and should be at least click-to-play.
was a fix ever found for this bug?
5.0.3f2 is still vulnerable and should be click-to-play
5.2.0f3 has fixed the problems I know about.
Flags: needinfo?(jorge)
What's the lowest version that isn't vulnerable?
Flags: needinfo?(jorge)
Scratch that, it should all be click to play. I'll update #967954.
Okay, so I'm updating the blocks to cover the following:

4.6.6f1 and lower
5.0 to 5.0.3f1
Product: addons.mozilla.org → Toolkit
