Sun Java: Web Start argument injection vulnerability Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200503-28 (Sun Java: Web Start argument injection vulnerability) Jouko Pynnonen discovered that Java Web Start contains a vulnerability in the way it handles property tags in JNLP files. Impact By enticing a user to open a malicious JNLP file, a remote attacker could pass command line arguments to the Java Virtual machine, which can be used to bypass the Java "sandbox" and to execute arbitrary code with the permissions of the user running the application. Workaround There is no known workaround at this time.
