What about a security fix for Java under Mac OS 10.4 and 10.5?

Apple recognized and offered a fix for the Flashback trojan here:

But it is only for OS 10.7 and 10.6. Presumably, users of 10.5 and 10.4 are still vulnerable. Because Apple insisted on providing Java support, rather than Oracle, the fix that was released in February doesn't work unless Apple were to make it work.

If Apple is unwilling to support Java for 10.5 and 10.4, they need to hand over whatever documentation Oracle would need so they can keep the Java environment (and security) up to date. 10.5 and 10.4 are still viable OSes and to not patch obvious security flaws in one way or another is irresponsible, at best.
