Java7, update7 = critical security flaw reported

Exploit reported (with proof of concept) yesterday to Oracle by Security Explorations. They are withholding public PoC disclosure for now.

»www.computerworld.com/s/ ··· omyId=85

Notably, Security Explorations claims they alerted Oracle in April to the flaw patched by Thursday's JRE 7,u7. Along with a list of 29 know exploits.

I certainly agree with the article..version 7 released in July 2011 is much easier to whack than version 6 ever was.

Time for Oracle to take a step back and stop messing around with Java..but the user should think about going back to version 6 which they are still maintaining and this is why....

Oops. thanks for heads-up. And I even looked around. Must not post when hungover.

Mods, pls remove this thread & maybe give Mele20's (ANOTHER zero day Java vulnerability) a more specific title?
