"The remote host is using a vulnerable version of Sun Java Runtime
Plug-in, an web browser addon used to display Java applets.

It has been reported that the JRE Plug-in Security can be bypassed.
A remote attacker could exploit this by tricking a user into viewing
a maliciously crafted web page.

Additionally, a denial of service vulnerability is present in this
version of the JVM.  This issue is triggered by viewing an applet
that misuses the serialization API.");
