Description:
Updated java-1.7.0-openjdk packages fix security vulnerability:

A flaw in the Java security manager, which is used for sandboxing Java
applets and enforcing other security restrictions, allows for arbitrary
code execution (CVE-2012-4681).

This updates IcedTea to version 2.3.2 which fixes this issue, an
XMLDecoder security issue via ClassFinder (CVE-2012-1682) and an issue
with AWT internals references (CVE-2012-0547), as well as several other
bugs.
