SOMEONE LIT A FIRE UNDER ORACLE'S ARSE

After the US Government suggest that users disable JAVA until further notice, due to the high amount of security breaches in the last few years, came another news headline: "ORACLE RUSHING TO PATCH SECURITY HOLE".

YES, LIKE A STONE THROWN INTO A POND, THE US HEADLINES CREATED FAR REACHING RIPPLES IN THE IT WORLD.

This morning I woke up to see another headline from US Government recommending that users still keep JAVA disabled. Other's in the security arena agree; one example being Malwarebytes as you can see from their most recent blog post.

From Malwarebytes Post:

"Oracle has issued an emergency patch to be shipped with version 7 update 11. While we are pleased to see a quick turnaround time, we stand by our initial recommendations to disable Java in your browser"

'Nuff Said,
