Synopsis |
| 16 |
======== |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in IcedTea allowing remote |

| 20 |
through various vectors. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
Background |
| 23 |
========== |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
IcedTea's aim is to provide OpenJDK in a form suitable for easy |
| 26 |
configuration, compilation and distribution with the primary goal of |
| 27 |
allowing inclusion in GNU/Linux distributions. |

Description |
| 39 |
=========== |
| 40 |
|
| 41 |
Various OpenJDK attack vectors in IcedTea, such as 2D, Corba, Hotspot, |
| 42 |
Libraries, and JAXP, exist which allows remote attackers to affect the |
| 43 |
confidentiality, integrity, and availability of vulnerable systems. |
| 44 |
Many of the vulnerabilities can only be exploited through sandboxed |
| 45 |
Java Web Start applications and java applets. Please review the CVE |
| 46 |
identifiers referenced below for details. |

|
| 48 |
Impact |
| 49 |
====== |
| 50 |
|
| 51 |
Remote attackers may execute arbitrary code, compromise information, or |
| 52 |
cause a Denial of Service condition. |
| 53 |
|
| 54 |
Workaround |
| 55 |
========== |
| 56 |
