Description

VLC media playback can be exposed through an older Mozilla NPAPI plugin interface for software that still expects it. This is relevant for legacy browser or application workflows, not for modern mainstream web browsing.

NPAPI is an old plugin model with compatibility and security concerns. Use it only when a trusted legacy workflow requires it, and avoid exposing untrusted media or web content through outdated plugin paths.
