Oracle Patches Java Zero Day Exploit To Make You Safe…. For Now….

Java users can breath easy…. At least for now. Oracle has released an update to Java that patches the zero day exploit that I’ve previously covered. Users should update to Java 7 Update 11 as soon as they can. Not only does it fix this zero day exploit, but it makes you more secure in a whole host of ways. So if you have Mac, PC,or another platform that runs Java, do what Nike tells you to do. Just do it and upgrade today. Of course, if you don’t need Java, you should disable or uninstall it. That will make you a whole lot safer.

Any bets on how long it will take for the next Java exploit to appear?
