It has been confirmed that the vulnerability affects users of Windows, Linux and Mac OS X. The bug is present in JRE 1.7 is the latest version. Apple had decided, since the Lion version of last year that it would stop offering Java installed on their machines, that policy remained with the Mountain Lion. However, users can manually install Java on your computer.
The computer security expert Tod Beardsley also confirmed that the flaw affects Macs. Just you have this version of Java installed and visit any page that has been configured for an attack and is replaced by your computer at the mercy of hackers.
It is expected now that Oracle can release a security update for failure. For now you should keep the version 1.6 or disable Java in your browser.
