If you still have Java installed, it is time to update!
Oracle released the scheduled critical security updates for its Java SE Runtime Environment software. Oracle reported that Java SE does not include OpenSSL and, therefore is not affected by HeartBleed and CVE-2014-0160. For Oracle products that are affected, see
OpenSSL Heartbleed Vulnerability CVE-2014-0160.
This is a Critical Patch Update that contains 37 fixes for Java, 35 of which Oracle indicated can be exploited by an attacker without the need for authentication. Additional details about the update are available in my blog post
here.
