Resolution
Connect for JDBC drivers are not directly affected by these security vulnerabilities.

JDBC drivers use a JRE/JDK . If the driver uses a version of JRE or JDK that is affected by a security vulnerability, the application will be affected by the vulnerability.

It is always recommended to use the very latest JRE/JDK release to stay current with all Java security updates. 

For example, an upgrade to Java runtime Environment (JRE) 7 or higher is needed to deny the small diffie-hellman keys.

For additional information on what JRE/JDK releases effected by security vulnerabilities, refer the Java provider's web site.
