Are there any kind of drive by download attacks (in Java maybe) that does not require any user interaction? When you make a drive by download in Java in general a popup appears to ask some permission to the user (example of permission).

So is this attack exist without any user interaction process?

    Yes - in Java maybe not so much these days, but there are many that exploit vulnerabilities in Adobe Flash, the browser, or the operating system.

Yes, many client side exploits on browsers (Internet Explorer, for example) and some plugins like Flash (and even some old Java ones I believe) do not acquire user interaction.
