Oracle Java Critical Security Update


Corrine

Recommended Posts

For those who still use Java, a Critical Patch Update that has 19 new security fixes for Oracle Java SE has been released. In addition, with this release, the SSLv3 protocol (Secure Socket Layer) has been deactivated and is not available by default. In addition, the protocol is removed from the Java Control Panel advanced options, although it can be re-enabled manually.

 

With the usual warnings about pre-checked extras, the update can be obtained from here: Java SE 8u31.

 

Additional details are available in my blog post: Oracle Java Critical Security Update
