This update brings the IBM Java 6 JDK and JRE to Service Release 4. It fixes lots of bugs and various security issues:
CVE-2008-5341: A vulnerability in the Java Runtime Environment may allow an untrusted Java Web Start application to determine the location of the Java Web Start cache and the username of the user running the Java Web Start application.
CVE-2008-5340: A vulnerability in the Java Runtime Environment with launching Java Web Start applications may allow an untrusted Java Web Start application to escalate privileges. For example, an untrusted application may grant itself permissions to read and write local files or execute local applications that are accessible to the user running the untrusted application.
CVE-2008-5351: The UTF-8 (Unicode Transformation Format-8) decoder in the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) accepts encodings that are longer than the 'shortest' form. This behavior is not a vulnerability in Java SE. However, it may be leveraged to exploit systems running software that relies on the JRE UTF-8 decoder to reject non-shortest form sequences. For example, non-shortest form sequences may be decoded into illegal URIs, which may then allow files that are not otherwise accessible to be read, if the URIs are not checked following UTF-8 decoding.
CVE-2008-5356: A buffer vulnerability in the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) with processing fonts may allow an untrusted applet or Java Web Start application to escalate 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.
CVE-2008-5357: A buffer vulnerability in the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) with processing fonts may allow an untrusted applet or Java Web Start application to escalate 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.
CVE-2008-5358: A buffer overflow vulnerability in the Java Runtime Environment with processing GIF images may allow an untrusted Java Web Start application to escalate privileges. For example, an untrusted application may grant itself permissions to read and write local files or execute local applications that are accessible to the user running the untrusted applet.
CVE-2008-5342: A security vulnerability in the the Java Web Start BasicService allows untrusted applications that are downloaded from another system to request local files to be displayed by the browser of the user running the untrusted application.
