Description Robin Kara 2012-08-31 06:46:43 UTC 
Hello guys!

There is a kinda critical security issue in the latest (still masked for ~amd64) version of dev-java/oracle-jre-bin. Since the CVE[1] says other Versions may be affected and there are already wide spread working exploits for this, we should really introduce the new version. All OSes/platforms are affected.

Are you able to do this soon? If not please give me feedback, so I will provide an ebuild which you should check since I don't do this too often :)

Thanks,
Robin

Assigned to Java, should fit better :)

Don't CC arches yourself. *Especially* if you can't do it right.
