MATLAB updater GUI throws Java error, how do I update?

While trying to update Matlab 2018a through AddOns -> Check For Updates -> Products, then selecting View most current product versions, MATLAB throws a Java error as below.

Is there a bugfix for this or do I need to uninstall and reinstall completely?
