Following the earlier attack, Apple released an update to Java for users to version 1.6.0_41. The exploit is reportedly different from the one used to attack Facebook, Twitter, Apple, and several other companies last month. According to a blog post published yesterday ( via IDG), browsers running Java v1.6 Update 41 and Java v1.7 Update 15 are now vulnerable to a malware attack that installs a remote access tool known as McRAT. Following an attack on a smaller number of corporate Macs that exploited a flaw in the Java browser plug-in, researchers from security firm FireEye warned users of yet another new Java zero-day vulnerability.
