Java vulnerabilities and SSL VPN

Hi,

 

Day after days, Java seems less secure:

 

Last Year, Java plug-in older than 1.6.0_31 and 1.7.0_2 were automatically blocked by browser (https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/blocked/p80)

 

Today, It's the turn of Java 1.7.0_10 to be desactivated (http://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/625617), and, no patched version is available...

 

 

These issues disable some major SSL VPN feature (JSAM, Network Connect, Meeting...). What can do Juniper to stop using Java for all these features?

 

 

Regards,

 

Vincent

Network Connect: use the installed application only.
JSAM by nature must use Java.
Meeting: enable collaboration on the Pulse config & launch through the Pulse tray
Beyond those, I'm not sure what options are available; this would be a good thing to bring up to your sales team to send to the product team for discussion & response

Re: Java vulnerabilities and SSL VPN

Is there report or document on Juniper SSL VPN vulnerability assessment and penetration testing?
