Although Java is the work of those over at Sun Microsystems, Apple needs to release its own updates for the platform. Because of the multiple vulnerabilities recently found in Java Web Start and the Java Plug-in, Apple has rolled out two separate Java updates for Mac OS X Tiger and Leopard users. Both are free to download and install right now.

Apple's Support section reveals that Java for Mac OS X 10.5 Update 3 “updates the Java Web Start and Java Applet components to address security and compatibility issues.” Apple adds that “this release supports all Intel-based and PowerPC-based Macs and requires that Java for Mac OS X 10.5 Update 2 be already installed.”
