Date: Wed, 4 Mar 2015 12:23:05 +1100 From: paul.szabo@...ney.edu.au To: fulldisclosure@...lists.org Subject: [FD] Java 8u40 released: why? I notice that Java (JDK, JRE) update 8u40 has been released. Though http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html says "this release includes important security fixes", the release notes http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/8u40-relnotes-2389089.html says the "security baseline" is 1.8.0_31 (unchanged). I do not notice any major "useability" issues fixed. So: why this out-of-band release? Thanks, Paul Paul Szabo psz@...hs.usyd.edu.au http://www.maths.usyd.edu.au/u/psz/ School of Mathematics and Statistics University of Sydney Australia _______________________________________________ Sent through the Full Disclosure mailing list https://nmap.org/mailman/listinfo/fulldisclosure Web Archives & RSS: http://seclists.org/fulldisclosure/
