http://blogs.sun.com/security/entry/advance_notification_of_security_updates5

On August 4, 2009, Sun will release the following security updates:
  • JDK and JRE 6 Update 15
  • JDK and JRE 5.0 Update 20
  • SDK and JRE 1.4.2_22
  • SDK and JRE 1.3.1_26
The following Sun Alerts corresponding to these updates will be released following the availability of these updates.
  • 263408
  • 263409
  • 263428
  • 263429
  • 263488
  • 263489
  • 263490
  • 264648
---------------------------------

It is assumed this will not include Java for OS X...since Apple creates their own Java packages for some strange reason.

Therefore, Apple will be vulnerable to above stated vulnerabilities...until they get around to fixing it.

The release notes for Java JRE 6 Update 15 have been updated...however, the sun alerts don't appear to be up yet.
