I was directed to update Java w 7.10...It seemed to download and install but when I ret'd to the website it redirected me back to the update page....endless loop.
What can be done about this and haas Apple disabled java in the meantime?
Why is Apple silent on this? How about telling the community here what/when/this is gonna be rsolved!?

All versions of Java should be considered untrustworthy. Enable Java in your web browser only when absolutely necessary, and disable it as soon as you're done with whatever task requires it. Using Java for non-essential purposes, such as playing games on a website, is inadvisable.

the developer Preview Release under :http://jdk7.java.net/download.html it works fine!

Oracle have released an update said to fix the security flaw, available from here:

Javascript should not be disabled (it has nothing to do with Java).
So....when is Oracle gonna fix this!? I cant access company websites needed for daily biz....
