Oracle is set to release a patch set for Java SE that targets 40 security vulnerabilities. Affected products include Java SE as well as JDK (Java Development Kit) and JavaFX rich-client development platform. Oracle came under fire in recent months over Java security after a spate of high-profile vulnerabilities. Oracle is recommending that customers apply the patches as soon as possible “due to the threat posed by a successful attack,” the company said. The Java SE patch set comes after Oracle released some 128 fixes for its database, middleware and applications in April.”]
