Detail

Product: Java 2 Platform, Standard Edition

The Java Secure Socket Extension (JSSE) that is included in various releases of the Java Runtime Environment does not correctly process SSL/TLS handshake requests. This vulnerability may be exploited to create a Denial of Service (DoS) condition to the system as a whole on a server that listens for SSL/TLS connections using JSSE for SSL/TLS support.

Sun acknowledges with thanks, Cisco Systems for bringing this issue to our attention.

Avoidance: Patch, Upgrade
State: Resolved
