Aug 15, 2012 - "... the latest Java version from Oracle is 7u6, also known as 1.7.0_6. If you don't intend to develop Java programs yourself, stick to the JRE. It's much smaller than the JDK, which reduces what's known in trendy-speak as your attack surface area. That's always a good thing. This new Java version includes a longish list of bugfixes*. These include: a few ominous-sounding ones with more than a whiff of vulnerability about them, such as 7166498 - JVM crash in ClassVerifier; the risky-sounding 7155051 - DNS provider may return incorrect results; and the intriguingly sticky-sounding 7178177 - Debug spewage when applets start up. With that in mind, I suggest you update as soon as practicable."
