sun-java6-plugin outdated and vulnerable to an actively exploited security issue

[echo083 <echo083@yahoo.fr>]

Hello,

Today when I started firefox, I found that the java plugin had been 
automatically disabled the explanation is here 
https://addons.mozilla.org/en/firefox/blocked/p119

All Firefox users who have installed the Java plugin, JRE versions below 
1.6.0_33 or between 1.7.0 and 1.7.0_5 are affected by an actively 
exploited security issue.

The sun-java6 in the stable branch is the version 1.6.0_26 is there a 
plan for any security upgrade ?
