Oracle is not at Fault, this is Apple's JVM, not Oracles, Please Fix in both PCWORLD and MACWORLD articles.

if this was Oracles JVM, Oracle would have made a patch available for the OS, since the Java on apple was a badly implemented version of java, noone should be surprized it's full of bugs.

no.. this was a bug in Java that affected all of Java... including on Windows and Linux etc... Since Oracle/Sun won't and never did make a version of Java for the Mac and Apple is still doing it until OpenJDK can take over... then they had to get in and do it and they took way too long doing it... the patch had been out for some time before Apple finally got it in and out the door.
