Oracle releases Java patch, but bugs remain
- USA: Tuesday, January 15 - 2013 at 06:28
Oracle has released an emergency update to its Java software for surfing the web on Sunday, but security experts said the update fails to protect PCs from attack by hackers intent on committing cybercrimes, Reuters has reported. The company said on its security blog on Sunday that its update fixed two vulnerabilities in the version of Java 7 for web browsers. However, Adam Gowdiak, a researcher with Poland's Security Explorations who has discovered several bugs in the software over the past year, said that the update from Oracle leaves unfixed several critical security flaws. "We don't dare to tell users that it's safe to enable Java again," said Gowdiak.
