Researchers warn Oracle's Java update contains new holes
- USA: Sunday, January 20 - 2013 at 04:28
Poland-based vulnerability research firm Security Explorations has said it has found two new vulnerabilities in Java 7 Update 11 that can be exploited to bypass the software's security sandbox and execute arbitrary code on computers, PC World has reported. The patch was released by Oracle last Sunday as an emergency security update in order to block a zero-day exploit used by cybercriminals to infect computers with malware. "There is definitely something worrying regarding the quality of Java SE 7 code," said the company's founder, Adam Gowdiak. This could suggest the lack of a proper Secure Development Lifecycle program for Java or some other problems that are internal to Oracle, he said.
