Why is the Plugin Check page saying my Java Applet Plugin is "vulnerable"? It's the latest one available.

I just upgraded to Lion and noticed that the Plugin Check page said my Java Applet Plugin was vulnerable. I knew it had just been installed (Lion doesn't come with it automatically, you have to get it through Software Update), but just in case something went wrong, I tried uninstalling and reinstalling it. But the Plugin Check page still says the same thing. What gives?
