Sun Java in Lenny
Posted by e5z8652 on Thu 16 Jul 2009 at 00:22
This problem:
http://isc.sans.org/diary.html?storyid=6805
Is hard to solve in Lenny:
http://packages.debian.org/search?suite=default§ion=all&arch=any&searchon=names&keywords=sun-java
When I asked about security updates for Lenny I was told to package it myself.
Hmm. While that *is* a solution, how many people get left behind?
Are there really so many changes between 6_12 and 6_14 that it would break a Lenny system?

(Yes, I know that SANS is reporting an attack on Windows machines. However I'm assuming that the Java vulnerability still exists on Linux installations.)
