Oracle Security Alert CVE-2013-0422 states that Java 7 Update 11 addresses this (CVE-2013-0422) and an equally severe, but distinct vulnerability (CVE-2012-3174). Immunity has indicated that only the reflection vulnerability has been fixed and that the JMX MBean vulnerability remains. It was originally introduced to Mac users in Mac OS 9. A Windows version has been available since the introduction of iTunes 7. Java 7-80 64-bit download. Feb 08, 2013 Mac users must update to the Java 7 Update 13 for Mac OS X. If you are not sure you need Java, try running your PC for a few weeks to see if you can do without it.

Oracle has released a critical security update that fixes at least 51 security vulnerabilities in its Java software. Patches are available for Linux, Mac OS X, Solaris and Windows versions of the software.
This update brings Java 7 to Update 45, and addresses a whole mess of security flaws. Oracle says that all but one of the 51 vulnerabilities fixed in this update may be remotely exploitable without authentication.
Updates are available from Java.com and the Java Control Panel. Apple has issued an update to its supported version of Java, which brings Java on the Mac to 1.6.0_65 for OS X 10.6.8 or later. As CNet notes, Apple is using this update to further encourage users to switch to Oracle’s Java runtime, especially for Web-based Java services.
“When this latest update is installed, according to Apple’s documentation it will remove the Apple-supplied Java plugin, and result in a ‘Missing plug-in’ section of a Web page that tries to run a Java applet,” CNet’s Topher Kessler writes. “If you click on the missing plug-in message, the system will direct you to Oracle’s Java Web site so you can download the latest version of Java 7, which will not only support the latest features in the Java runtime, but also include the latest bug and vulnerability fixes. Apple’s last supported version of Java is Java SE 6, and since handing the reigns over to Oracle, has progressively stepped back from supporting the runtime in OS X.”
Broken record alert: If you really need and use Java for specific Web sites or applications, take a few minutes to update this software. Oracle likes to remind everyone that 3 billion devices worldwide run Java, and that 89 percent of desktops run some form of Java (that roughly matches what vulnerability management firm Secunia found last year). But that huge install base — combined with a hit parade of security bugs and a component that plugs straight into the Web browser — makes Java software a perennial favorite target of malware and malcontents alike.

Before You Begin
- Mac OS X 10.8 or higher
- Ensure that you have Administrator privileges on the system.
- Ensure that you have 350 MB free on your computer's hard drive.
- If you are logged into SAPgui, log off and 'Quit' the SAPgui application.
- If you have an SAP folder on your hard drive within the Applications folder, make a note of the name of the folder. You will be able to revert to the prior version if necessary.
Pre-Installation Instructions
A. SAPgui and Kerberos Tickets
Acquire Kerberos tickets. Tickets are required to connect to SAP systems
- SAPgui may bring up the Ticket Viewer to prompt you to obtain Kerberos tickets. If not:
- You may see an error mentioning 'GSS-API'
- SAPgui may stall at 'Connecting...'
- Your SAPgui session may freeze.
All of these behaviors mean that either you do not have Kerberos tickets, or your Kerberos tickets have expired. To resolve that issue, use the instruction below to get tickets manually.
- How to get Kerberos tickets manually
- Launch Kerberos Ticket Viewer (/Applications/Utilities/Ticket Viewer). On Mac OS Catalina it is located in (/System/Library/CoreServices/Applications)
- Enter your Kerberos username (the first part of your @mit.edu email address), and your Kerberos password (the password used to check your @mit.edu email).
- If You cannot find the Ticket Viewer app (Catalina OS) then (re)install the Java JDK, reboot and it should show up.
NOTE: Your Kerberos tickets will last for 10 hours only, and have to be manually renewed if you wish to remain in SAP longer. If you do wish to remain in SAP longer than 10 hours, it's a good idea to renew them at least 20 minutes or so before they expire.
B. Ensure Kerberos Extras is installed
Download and install Kerberos Extras.
C. Install Oracle Java 8 JDK
Note: SAPgui 7.40 for Mac requires Oracle Java 8 JDK. Go to Oracle's download page to download Java SE Development Kit 8 for Mac OS X. An Oracle account is required to download Java 8 JDK.You'll receive the prompt to create an account once you select the correct JDK version.
