I wanted to play with java, but it looks like all the ports we have are busted... jdk13 native has issues: ===> jdk-1.3.1p9_5 has known vulnerabilities: => jdk/jre -- Security Vulnerability With Java Plugin. Reference: <http://www.FreeBSD.org/ports/portaudit/ac619d06-3ef8-11d9-8741-c942c075aa41.html>; jdk14 depends on linux-sun-jdk14 which has issues: ===> linux-sun-jdk-1.4.2.08_1 has known vulnerabilities: => jdk -- jar directory traversal vulnerability. Reference: <http://www.FreeBSD.org/ports/portaudit/18e5428f-ae7c-11d9-837d-000e0c2e438a.html>; Is Sun planning on fixing this? -- - Alfred Perlstein - Research Engineering Development Inc. - email: bright@mu.org cell: 408-480-4684
