Security flaw in Java 1.7

It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

Java 1.7 update 7 is ok. Versions prior to that are affected.

I don't do meditation. I drink alcohol to relax, like normal people.

Luckily for me, I only allow Java to run on a line-by-line basis.
