Java JRE Critical Update (6/7/2011)
All:
We're trying to determine if the update described here: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/topics/security/javacpujune2011-313339.html, applies to our ColdFusion application servers. Any thoughts?
Thanks!

There was a lot of community research around update 24 in Feburary and Adobe officially tested and endorsed the upgrade.
I believe the poster is wondering if that same level of attention is being paid to this update (update 26) since there are security concerns posted that indicate potential threats to availability, confidentiality, and integrity.
Any insight would surely be helpful. My organization has moved our development environments over to update 26 for testing without issues (yet), but additional insight into official/unofficial testing and whether any of the bugs actually impact ColdFusion implementations would be great.
Can't speak officially for Adobe. But historically, they haven't "endorsed" each release of Java.
I've never had a problem calling in for support where they've pointed a finger at the Java version we're running and said they wouldn't help. Worse case is they'll ask you to install the officially supported flavor and test your issue again. It still a problem? Then the version of Java you're on isn't the problem.
