Instructions to disable SSL v3.0 in Oracle JDK and JRE
Oracle recommends that users and developers disable use of the SSLv3 protocol. Please follow the Instructions to disable SSL v3.0 in Oracle JDK and JRE.
Change in javax.smartcardio.Card.disconnect(boolean reset) method behavior
Prior to the JDK 8u20 and JDK 7u72 releases, the javax.smartcardio.Card.disconnect(boolean reset) method had inverted logic for the 'reset' boolean value passed to it. The card was reset upon a disconnect if false was passed to it and vice versa. Starting with JDK 7u72 and JDK 8u20, the correct behavior as per API documentation has been implemented.
In order to provide backwards compatibility to users who rely on the old behavior, a new system property has been introduced. The following command-line option can be used to enforce the old broken behavior:
-Dsun.security.smartcardio.invertCardReset=true
This property is set by default for 7u72 and later JDK 7 update releases. By default, no behavioral change will be noticed in this area for JDK 7 update releases.
Also the following command-line option can be used to enforce the new correct behavior:
-Dsun.security.smartcardio.invertCardReset=false
This is default for 8u20 and later JDK 8 update releases. In future Java releases, the property will be ignored/disabled and default disconnect method behavior will be as specified by API.

Bug Fixes
The following bug fix is included in this release:
Area: deploy/plugin
Synopsis: regression - java_arguments not accepted after update to 7u65
The regression is addressed in this release.
See 8050875.
7.0.65: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/7u65-relnotes-2229169.html
IANA Data 2014c
JDK 7u65 contains IANA time zone data version 2014c. For more information, refer to Timezone Data Versions in the JRE Software.
New Features and Changes
New Java Control Panel option to disable sponsors
Currently, to disable sponsor offers at the time of installation, the user can de-select the option during installation or can pass SPONSORS=0 as a commandline option.
In this release, a new Java Control Panel(JCP) option to disable sponsors is available. To use this option, go to JCP's "Advanced" tab, and check or uncheck "Suppress sponsor offers when updating Java".
This option is applicable to 32 and 64 bit Windows operating systems.
New JAXP processing limit property - maxElementDepth
A new property, maxElementDepth, is added to provide applications the ability to set limit on maximum element depth in an xml file that they parse. This may be helpful for applications that may use too much resources when processing an xml file with excessive element depth.
Name: http://java.sun.com/xml/jaxp/properties/maxElementDepth
Definition: Limit the maximum element depth
Value: A positive integer. 0 is treated as no limit. Negative numbers are treated as 0.
Defaule value: 0
System property: jdk.xml.maxElementDepth
For more details, see Processing Limits from JAXP tutorial trail.
See 8031541 (not public).
Bug Fixes
This release contains fixes for security vulnerabilities. For more information, see Oracle Critical Patch Update Advisory.
For a list of bug fixes included in this release, see JDK 7u65 Bug Fixes page.
The following are some of the notable bug fixes in this release:
Area: client-libs/AWT
Synopsis: Using RMI from a restricted environment may cause a NullPointerException.
If an application uses RMI and runs in a restricted environment (ie. Java Plugin, Java Web Start), it may not work. In particular, if you run a UI from an RMI callback, a NullPointerException is likely to be thrown.
See 8019274.
Area: other-libs/corba
Synopsis: org.omg.CORBA.ORBSingletonClass loading no longer uses context class loader
The system property org.omg.CORBA.ORBSingletonClass is used to configure the system-wide/singleton ORB. The handling of this system property was changed in the 7u55 release to require that the system wide/singleton ORB be visible to the system class loader.
In this release, the handling of this system property has been reverted to match the behavior found in JDK versions prior to 7u55 release, i.e. the singleton ORB is once again located using the thread context class loader of the first thread, to call the no-argument ORB.init method. The change is made to support applications which depend on this behavior.
Note that this change is applicable to 8u20, 7u65, 6u85 and 5.0u75 releases. For JDK 9, the new behavior, where the system wide/singleton ORB needs to be visible to the system class loader, will continue.
See 8046603.
Known Issues
Area: xml/jax-ws
Synopsis: JAF initialization in SAAJ clashing with the one in javax.mail
After initialization of SAAJ components, the javax.mail library may fail to work under certain circumstances, which in turn could break the javax.mail's JAF setup.
A possible workaround is to re-add the javax.mail handler before using javax.mail API:
MailcapCommandMap mailMap = (MailcapCommandMap) CommandMap.getDefaultCommandMap();
mailMap.addMailcap("multipart/mixed;;x-java-content-handler=com.sun.mail.handlers.multipart_mixed");
See 8043129.
* PLIST.linux-i386 and PLIST.linux-x86_64 are confirmed.

Java SE Development Kit 7, Update 60 (JDK 7u60)
The full version string for this update release is 1.7.0_60-b19 (where "b" means "build"). The version number is 7u60.
Highlights
This update release contains several enhancements and changes including the following:
Java Mission Control
New Features and Changes
IANA Data 2014b
JDK 7u60 contains IANA time zone data version 2014b. For more information, refer to Timezone Data Versions in the JRE Software.
JavaFX
This JDK release includes JavaFX version 2.2.60.
Java Mission Control
This JDK release includes Java Mission Control(JMC) version 5.3. For more information, see JMC 5.3 Release Notes.
New Features and Changes
Java ignores deployment.expiration.check.enabled property for first launch
If you have an older version of Java and expiration check is turned off through deployment.properties file, Java may ignore this property for first launch.
To ensure that expiration check is disabled, use the following Java Web Start command:
javaws -userConfig deployment.expiration.check.enabled false
If this property is changed in the deployment.properties file, open the Java Control Panel before starting an application to ensure that the native cache is synchronized with the file. For more information, see Deployment Configuration File and Properties.
New flags added to Java Management API
The flags MinHeapFreeRatio and MaxHeapFreeRatio have been made manageable. This means they can be changed at runtime using the management API in Java. Support for these flags have also been added to the ParallelGC as part of the adaptive size policy.
Bug Fixes
For a list of bug fixes included in this release, see JDK 7u60 Bug Fixes page.
The following are some of the notable bug fixes in this release:
Area: security-libs/java.security
Synopsis: Realm.getRealmsList returns realms list in wrong order
Java does not support the [capaths] section in krb5.conf correctly if there are more then one intermediate realm between the client realm and the server realm.
See 8012615.
Changelog:
JavaFX Release Notes
JavaFX is now part of JDK. JDK 7u55 release includes JavaFX version 2.2.55.
New Features and Changes
The frequency of some security dialogs has been reduced on systems that run the same RIA multiple times.
See 8029649.
Using "*" in Caller-Allowable-Codebase Attribute.
If a stand-alone asterisk (*), or asterisk as part of a top level domain such as (*.org), is specified as the value for the Caller-Allowable-Codebase attribute, then calls from JavaScript code to the RIA will show a security warning. An option to remember the choice is also provided, and if the user selects the option to remember the choice to run the RIA, no further warning messages are shown for the same RIA, when run with JavaScript from the same source.
For more information, see JAR File Manifest Attributes for Security documentation.
See 8033707.
Disabling Sponsor Offers in the Java Installer
During the installation of Java, users may be presented with the option of downloading and installing sponsor offers, such as browser add-ons, or security software. With 7u55 and later releases of Java, sponsor offers can be bypassed entirely by using "SPONSORS=0" as an option, when installing Java via the command line:
Manually download the 32bit online installer for 7u55 to your local machine.
Click the Windows Start Button/Menu. From the available Menu choices, select the 'Search box' and enter the text "command" in it.
A list of matches will appear. Select 'Command Prompt' from the available Programs list.
Navigate to the folder containing the downloaded installer, e.g.:
cd c:\Users\<username>\Downloads
To start the installation, in the Command Prompt window type:
jre-7u55-windows-i586-iftw.exe SPONSORS=0
The option to disable sponsors will persist across all future updates and re-installs of Java.
Note that sponsor offers, and therefore this functionality, is only applicable to online 32bit JRE installers and Auto Update mechanisms for the Windows operating system.

Bug Fixes
Notable Bug Fixes in JDK 7u10
The following are some of the notable bug fixes included in JDK 7u10.
Area: java command
Description: Wildcard expansion for single entry classpath does not work on Windows platforms.
The Java command and Setting the classpath documents describe how the wildcard character (*) can be used in a classpath element to expand into a list of the .jar files in the associated directory, separated by the classpath separator (;).
This wildcard expansion does not work in a Windows command shell for a single element classpath due to the Microsoft bug described in Wildcard Handling is Broken.
See 7146424.
