Microsoft plugs eight holes in its Java software | |

Serious security flaw in Microsoft's virtual machine (VM) found on most Windows PCs could allow an attacker to take over a user's system, Microsoft warned late Wednesday. A fixed version of the software is available. Microsoft's VM is used for running Java applications on Windows PCs and comes with most Windows and Internet Explorer versions. All builds up to and including build 5.0.3805 are affected by eight security flaws, six of which pose a "low" or "moderate" risk to users, Microsoft said in security bulletin MS02-069.

| MS better get the fixes in now because after 2004, they're not allowed to do anything with the JVM according to the court order in the first Sun v. Microsoft case. |
