The security problem fixed above is with the OLD JAVA INSTALLERS .  

Keep in mind that most people routinely download all their installers into a designated file, typically called DOWNLOADS.  

As such, it is critical that you now examine your (default or custom-chosen) DOWNLOADS file to purge it of all old Java installers!
