Oracle released the scheduled critical security updates for its Java SE Runtime Environment software. This Critical Patch Update contains 15 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.
