Big Security Hole with Java6: Hacker can run any Exe/Dll with both IE and Firefox
On Friday April 9th Tavis Ormandy reported a major security hole on Java 6 which allows a hacker server to run any exe / dll on the victim’s pc. Surprisingly Oracle – now Sun’s owner – didn’t want to patch the hole before her regular lifecycle update every semester until Roger Thompson from AVG started the buzz about it.
So the patch is now available here.
