VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/36598/

DESCRIPTION:
Apple has issued an update for Java for Mac OS X. This fixes some

can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow and
potentially execute arbitrary code.

2) Various other vulnerabilities in Java have also been reported,
which can be exploited by malicious people to disclose sensitive
information, conduct spoofing attacks, bypass certain security
restrictions, cause a DoS (Denial of Service), or compromise a user's
system.
