The remote Oracle Linux 5 / 6 / 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ELSA-2014-1634 advisory.

[1:1.6.0.33-1.13.5.0]
- Update to IcedTea 1.13.5
- Remove upstreamed patches.
- Regenerate add-final-location-rpaths patch against new release.
- Change versioning to match java-1.7.0-openjdk so revisions work.
- Use xz for tarballs to reduce file size.
- No need to explicitly disable system LCMS any more (bug fixed upstream).
