Funny story about Java vulnerability (tangental to the OP, but whatevs), the company i work for, who is very super-serious about protecting confidential information (we deal in names, personal info, social security numbers, federal background checks) has their system running entirely on a Java-based program...

Java is fine, it's the browser plugin that's had all of the vulnerabilities.

Yes Java in itself is fine to use. Its the plugins / extensions released to home users on Firefox, Chrome, Oracle (Opera? I know its an O something lol), etc
