| Description: | Oracle Java SE version 6 includes the Oracle Java Runtime Environment and the Oracle Java Software Development Kit.
Oracle Java SE 6 will not receive updates after February 28, 2013. The Oracle Java SE 6 packages on the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 and 6 Supplementary media and in Red Hat Network (RHN) channels will continue to be available.
Red Hat will continue to provide these packages only as a courtesy to customers. Red Hat will not provide updates to these packages after this date.
Once customers update their system by installing the packages associated with this advisory, the Oracle Java Web Plug-in will be disabled. As a result, customers who rely on Java-based browser applets may need to re-configure their browser to use one of the Java implementations listed in the Solution section below.
All users of java-1.6.0-sun are advised to upgrade to these updated packages.
