Java 8 Update 101

Oracle released Java 8 Update 101 a couple of weeks ago, and I somehow managed to miss it. The Oracle Critical Patch Update Advisory for July 2016 includes the details, and I’m still subscribed to the Oracle Security Alerts RSS feed, so I can only assume that I failed to notice it. Mea culpa.

The new version includes fixes for at least thirteen security vulnerabilities, as well as several other bug fixes.

Anyone with Java enabled in their web browser should update Java as soon as possible. Hopefully most of you noticed the update and installed it before I did.
