Apple updates Java on Mac OS X

Apple updates Java on Mac OS X
Apple has updated Java runtime for Macs to fix several security bugs and issues.
The updates have been released for both Mac OS XTiger and Mac OS X Leopard. 
The company said in an advisory that the updates fixes address a total of 38 Common Vulnerability and Exposure (CVE) entries in Java.
Apple added that the fixes included both Mac-specific and Java-specific flaws.
Java for Mac is not developed by Sun.  Apple  provi des it from its own sources and as a result they are often slower at providing all the latest patches available on other platforms.
