Java SE 7u25 update for LMS 4.2.3? Java vulnerabilities

CSIRC is requiring updates to JRE on all systems. Is it possible to update the java runtime environment beyond 1.6.0_31? Oracle announced (June 2013) and provides critical patches for the affected systems:

Applications Affected

  • JDK and JRE 7 Update 21 and prior
  • JDK and JRE 6 Update 45 and prior
  • JDK and JRE 5.0 Update 45 and prior
  • JavaFX 2.2.21 and prior

I am currently running LMS 4.2.3 on Solaris 10 and Windows 2008 systems. If I update the servers to JRE 7 (JRE 6u45 was the latest for version 6) will LMS still function without loss to its clients? Is there a workaround to eliminate the java vulnerabilities? If Java SE 7u25 will work, can someone provide installation guidance to avoid breaking the application?

Hello,

here is Cisco answer:

Now the recommended Java version to be used on LMS 4.2.3 is Java Plug-in version 1.6.0_31 or higher (up to Java Plug-in version 1.6.0_45 )

Java  7 is not supported over LMS 4.2.3 ,  and it will cause topology services not to launch up correctly.

However Java  7 is planned to be used as part of LMS 4.2.4 which should be released on October.
