[GLSA-200602-07] Sun JDK/JRE: Applet privilege escalation |
||
Sun JDK/JRE: Applet privilege escalation Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200602-07 (Sun JDK/JRE: Applet privilege escalation) Applets executed using JRE or JDK can use "reflection" APIs functions to elevate its rights beyond the sandbox restrictions. Adam Gowdiak discovered five vulnerabilities that use this method for privilege escalation. Two more vulnerabilities were discovered by the vendor. Peter Csepely discovered that Web Start Java applications also can an escalate their rights. Impact A malicious Java applet can bypass Java sandbox restrictions and hence access local files, connect to arbitrary network locations and execute arbitrary code on the user's machine. Java Web Start applications are affected likewise. Workaround Select another Java implementation using java-config.
