Whenever anyone says "JavaScript" they actually mean "ECMAScript", which is the language browsers and scripting engines actually implement. The Web standard documents cannot use the term "JavaScript" because of the trademark issue.

There isn't even such a thing as "Oracle JavaScript", they are sitting on the trademark without using it.
