Detail
| Product: Java Platform, Standard Edition (Java SE) Multiple buffer overflow vulnerabilities in the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) image processing code (CR 6726779), its handling of GIF images (CR 6766136) as well as its font processing (CRs 6733336 and 6751322) may allow an untrusted applet or Java Web Start application to elevate its privileges. For example, an untrusted applet may grant itself permissions to read and write local files or execute local applications that are accessible to the user running the untrusted applet. Sun acknowledges with thanks, the following: For CR 6726779: An anonymous researcher working with Zero Day Initiative (http://www.zerodayinitiative.com/) and TippingPoint (http://www.tippingpoint.com) For CR 6733336: For CR 6751322 and CR 6766136: State: Resolved First released: 03-Dec-2008 |
