Security fixes for recent Java bugs ([USN-1806-1] OpenJDK 7 vulnerabilities (fwd))

[Tomas Pospisek]

Hello Java package maintainers,

Ubuntu has recently shipped security fixes for a whole mountain of Java 
fixes (see forwarded mail below).

I have randomly taken one of the bugs, CVE-2013-1518 and checked it:

   https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2013-1518

and it apears Debian is vulnerable. What's the status of these bugs and 
what's the way forward? Should I file bugs for each of these?
