Fedora 20 : java-1.7.0-openjdk-1.7.0.60-2.4.4.1.fc20 (2014-1048)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 72029

Synopsis

The remote Fedora host is missing a security update.

Description

Security update to icedtea 2.4.4 http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/topics/security/cpujan2014-1972949.h tml

Now also arm32 have icedtea 2.4.4, as 2.3 was no longer maintainable.

Please note, this will bring significant, but *necessary* slow down (aporx 30%) on *arm32*. As buggy arm32 JIT was removed in 2.4.
Possible speedup may be once *arm32* JIT is fixed (rewritten)

Sorry.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Update the affected java-1.7.0-openjdk package.
