Publication date 6 October 2007

Ubuntu priority

Low

Java Web Start in Sun JDK and JRE 6 Update 2 and earlier does not properly enforce access restrictions for untrusted applications, which allows user-assisted remote attackers to read and modify local files via an untrusted application, aka “two vulnerabilities.”
