Story #3159
Update Java on all machines
100%
Description
The version of java being used has some known vulnerabilities and should be updated.
There is a script that can build a .deb for the latest version:
https://github.com/flexiondotorg/oab-java6
It generates a local apt repository under /var/local/oab
This has been run on dev-testing, so when ready the .deb packages can be copied from /var/local/oab/deb to /var/www/ubuntu-extra for distribution to other machines.
The current version is:
java version "1.6.0_34"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_34-b04)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.9-b04, mixed mode)

apt-get update
