Windows Oracle Java Modernization 

Summary 

A recent update to our Windows Java initial detection greatly improved the identification of the Java type as Oracle Java. However, our older Windows Java vuln detections (from as far back as 2013) were not built to leverage the newer initial detection internal reporting, and stopped showing up on customer scans. 

Change

To resolve this, our Research team transitioned the older vuln detections to leverage the new initial detection internal reporting convention. In all, 38 Windows Oracle Java plugins were modernized and telemetry is showing they are again reporting on customer scans.

Impact

Customers should see the windows Oracle Java vuln detections return to scan reports.
