A few days ago, Adam Gowdiak of Security Explorations discovered vulnerabilities in the most recent version of Java, 7u15.

Oracle’s response was to deny that the problem existed. So Adam got to work, testing Java 7u15 in more detail, and checking his results against the published Java documentation. He was able to confirm that his original report was legitimate, and he also found five more new vulnerabilities along the way. All of this information has been passed on to Oracle. Will they believe him this time? I’m betting yes.
