So, another quarter goes by, another set of Oracle updates http://www.zdnet.com/oracle-fixes-many-vulnerabilities-in-dozens-of-products-7000031640/

Oracle Java 7 has been updated to update 65 so time to update the SCCM deployments.

Having a quick review we have:
Java files are copied while the offline install is running, from
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\LocalLow\Sun\Java\jre1.7.0_65 and
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\LocalLow\Sun\Java\jre1.7.0_65_x64
for x86 and x64 respectively

Java is offered via Software Center and runs an install script and an uninstall script.
The install script (.cmd file) kills off some local processes which might interfere with the install.
It then installs x86 and if a 'program files (x86)' directory exists, installs x64 also.
Lastly it disables automatic update checks.

taskkill /F /IM iexplorer.exe
taskkill /F /IM iexplore.exe
taskkill /F /IM firefox.exe
taskkill /F /IM chrome.exe
taskkill /F /IM javaw.exe
taskkill /F /IM jqs.exe
taskkill /F /IM jusched.exe
REM Call the uninstall script
cscript %~dp0\Java_Uninstall.vbs
REM Install JRE x86
msiexec.exe /i %~dp0\jre1.7.0_65_x86\jre1.7.0_65.msi /passive /norestart /l*v c:\windows\temp\Java7x86.log
REM Installing JRE x64
if exist %ProgramFiles(x86)%
msiexec.exe /i %~dp0\jre1.7.0_65_x64\jre1.7.0_65.msi /passive /norestart /l*v c:\windows\temp\Java7x64.log
REM Disable automatic updates
reg delete "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run" /v SunJavaUpdateSched /f
reg add "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\JavaSoft\Java Update\Policy" /v EnableJavaUpdate /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f
REM Return the exit code to SCCM
exit /B %EXIT_CODE%


The uninstall script (.vbs) queries WMI to uninstall all versions of java

If you're deploying as an application, remember to update the product codes and detection method (in this case the MSI code changed to {26A24AE4-039D-4CA4-87B4-2F03217065FF} - the last 4 characters changed from 55FF to 65FF

Update the distribution points, and test!
