> Oracle released security patches for Java on July 17, 2024; exploitation could enable remote code execution or denial of service.

On July 17, 2024, Oracle published security updates for Java addressing multiple vulnerabilities in supported releases. The Japanese IPA (Information-technology Promotion Agency) issued an alert noting that exploitation of these vulnerabilities could result in application crashes or attacker control of affected systems. The advisory recommends immediate patching of all supported Oracle Java products to the latest available version. The alert notes that Oracle changed its licensing model for Java releases from April 2024 onward, and organizations using Java commercially should verify their licensing compliance and engage Oracle's paid support channels as appropriate.
