Oracle pledged to fix the issues in Java and to improve how it communicates with users.
The database giant will "get Java fixed up" to improve security, Milton Smith, Java security lead at Oracle, said during
a conference call with Java User Group leaders last week. The conference call came a few weeks after researchers uncovered
various attacks exploiting
serious vulnerabilities in Java. Even after the company rushed out an
emergency update to patch the flaws, researchers found additional bugs.
"No amount of talking or smoothing over is going to make anybody happy. We have to fix Java," Smith said on the call.
