Oracle Java SE JRE Security Update


Corrine

Recommended Posts

Oracle released the scheduled critical security updates for its Java SE Runtime Environment software. This Critical Patch Update contains 8 new security patches for Oracle Java SE.  All of these vulnerabilities may be remotely exploitable without authentication, i.e., may be exploited over a network without requiring user credentials.

Update :  If Java is still installed on your computer, it is recommended that this update be applied as soon as possible due to the threat posed by a successful attack.

Download Information:  Java SE Runtime Environment Version 8u271: https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/javase-jre8-downloads.html or https://java.com/en/download/manual.jsp.

UNcheck any pre-checked toolbar and/or software options presented with the update. They are not part of the software update and are completely optional. Preferably, see the instructions below on how to handle "Unwanted Extras".

Hmm... I can't even remember the last time I had an operating system (Win or Lin) with Java installed on it. It's been years.
