[SECURITY] IcedTea 2.3.1 Released!

We are pleased to announce the release of IcedTea 2.3.1 [*], based on
OpenJDK7 u6.

The IcedTea project provides a harness to build the source code from
OpenJDK using
Free Software build tools, along with additional features such as a
PulseAudio sound driver
and support for alternative virtual machines.

This 2.3.1 release includes a fix for the zero-day issue that arose this week:

* RH852051, CVE-2012-4681: Reintroduce PackageAccessible checks
removed in 6788531.

Security releases for the previous release branches, 2.1 & 2.2, will
follow shortly.

We believe that the 2.3.1 release takes IcedTea to the level of
Oracle's proprietary
7u6 binaries, being based on the latest contents of the OpenJDK u6
Mercurial repositories.

In addition, IcedTea includes the usual IcedTea patches to allow
builds against system libraries
and to support more estoric architectures.

As detailed in:

http://blog.fuseyism.com/index.php/2012/07/26/the-return-of-zero-sort-of/

Zero is again supported again in this release, by the use of the older
HotSpot from IcedTea 2.1 when building
with --enable-zero.

Patches are welcome; please contact the mailing list (distro-pkg-dev
at openjdk.java.net) and/or file
bugs (http://icedtea.classpath.org/bugzilla) under the appropriate component.

[*] Note that IcedTea 2.3.0 ended up as a forest-based release only,
as the need for a security update
become apparent before a matching IcedTea release could be made.

Full details of the release can be found below.
