Oracle Java SE Unspecified Vulnerability

Oracle · Java SE

Summary

The flaw is an unspecified vulnerability in the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) component of Oracle Java SE, affecting the 2D graphics area of Java SE 7 Update 21 and earlier, 6 Update 45 and earlier, and 5.0 Update 45 and earlier, as well as OpenJDK 7. A remote attacker with no authentication and no required user interaction could, via unknown vectors, affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability, with a separately reported claim that the flaw permits bypassing the Java sandbox through improper image channel verification in 2D.
