IBM Java SE version 7 Release 1 includes the IBM Java Runtime Environment
and the IBM Java Software Development Kit.

This update fixes several vulnerabilities in the IBM Java Runtime
Environment and the IBM Java Software Development Kit. Further information
about these flaws can be found on the IBM Java Security alerts page, listed
in the References section. (CVE-2015-5041, CVE-2015-7575, CVE-2015-7981,
CVE-2015-8126, CVE-2015-8472, CVE-2015-8540, CVE-2016-0402, CVE-2016-0448,
CVE-2016-0466, CVE-2016-0483, CVE-2016-0494)

Note: This update also disallows the use of the MD5 hash algorithm in the
certification path processing. The use of MD5 can be re-enabled by removing
MD5 from the jdk.certpath.disabledAlgorithms security property defined in
the java.security file.

All users of java-1.7.1-ibm are advised to upgrade to these updated
packages, containing the IBM Java SE 7R1 SR3-FP30 release. All running
instances of IBM Java must be restarted for the update to take effect.
