CERT states this: "Systems Affected Any system using Oracle Java 7 (1.7, 1.7.0) including Java Platform Standard Edition 7 (Java SE 7) Java SE Development Kit (JDK 7) Java SE Runtime Environment (JRE 7) OpenJDK 7 and 7u IcedTea 2.x (IcedTea7 2.x) All versions of Java 7 through update 10 are affected.
