ZDNet - Two more Java Zero Day Exploits found. 

security researcher Adam Gowdiak said his firm (Security Explorations) had examined the latest Java 7 software update, released on February 19, and found two new security issues—dubbed Issue 54 and Issue 55—which "when combined together, can be successfully used to gain a complete Java security sandbox bypass in the environment of Java SE 7 (Update 15)."
