Re: Zero day security hole in Java plugin

It is in the Java plugin running on the browser, nothing to do with NGINX.

The Java zeroday is webserver agnostic, which means that is compatible with
Apache, NGINX, Lighttpd etc.

It requires a webpage to show an applet, and everything goes to hell
afterwards.

Disable your Java plugin in your browser, and never activate it again.
