The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200501-16 (Konqueror: Java sandbox vulnerabilities)
Konqueror contains two errors that allow JavaScript scripts and Java applets to have access to restricted Java classes.
Impact :
A remote attacker could embed a malicious Java applet in a web page and entice a victim to view it. This applet can then bypass security restrictions and execute any command, or access any file with the rights of the user running Konqueror.
Workaround :
There is no known workaround at this time.
