Detail
Product: Sun Java Standard Edition (Java SE) A security vulnerability in the Active TemplateLibrary (ATL) in various releases of Microsoft Visual Studio that isused by the Java Web Start ActiveX control may allow the Java Web StartActiveX control to be leveraged to execute arbitrary code. This mayoccur as the result of a user of the Java Runtime Environment viewing aspecially crafted web page that exploits this vulnerability. Note: The Java Runtime Environment includes the Java Web Start technologywhich uses the Java Web Start ActiveX control to launch Java Web Startin Internet Explorer. Sun acknowledges with thanks, Microsoft Vulnerability Research (MSVR)for bringing this issue to our attention, and David Dewey of IBMISS-X-Force and Ryan Smith of Verisign iDefense Labs for reporting theissues to Microsoft.
