Hi,

Thank you for the links.

I am currently on Mac OSX 10.6 Snow Leopard with Java disabled on
LibreOffice and it is working normally.
I will test out the  Java 7 on Mac OSX Mountain Lion for the fixed
vulnerability in Java. The Mac OSX Mountain Lion System is running Java SE6
with LibreOffice at the momment. I think it is version 1.6.37.
That is the standard version which I installed when OSX Mountain Lion
prompted me to install Java for LibreOffice, when I first installed it and
ran the application.
 Mac OSX Mountain Lion does not come pre-installed with Java Software.
