Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in OpenJDK, an
implementation of the Oracle Java platform.

  • CVE-2011-3377
    The IcedTea browser plugin included in the openjdk-6 package
    does not properly enforce the Same Origin Policy on web content
    served under a domain name which has a common suffix with the
    required domain name.
  • CVE-2011-3563
    The Java Sound component did not properly check for array
    boundaries. A malicious input or an untrusted Java application
    or applet could use this flaw to cause Java Virtual Machine to
    crash or disclose portion of its memory.
  • CVE-2011-5035
    The OpenJDK embedded web server did not guard against an
    excessive number of a request parameters, leading to a denial
    of service vulnerability involving hash collisions.
  • CVE-2012-0497
    It was discovered that Java2D did not properly check graphics
    rendering objects before passing them to the native renderer.
    This could lead to JVM crash or Java sandbox bypass.
  • CVE-2012-0501
    The ZIP central directory parser used by java.util.zip.ZipFile
    entered an infinite recursion in native code when processing a
    crafted ZIP file, leading to a denial of service.
  • CVE-2012-0502
    A flaw was found in the AWT KeyboardFocusManager class that
    could allow untrusted Java applets to acquire keyboard focus
    and possibly steal sensitive information.
  • CVE-2012-0503
    The java.util.TimeZone.setDefault() method lacked a security
    manager invocation, allowing an untrusted Java application or
    applet to set a new default time zone.
  • CVE-2012-0505
    The Java serialization code leaked references to serialization
    exceptions, possibly leaking critical objects to untrusted
    code in Java applets and applications.
  • CVE-2012-0506
    It was discovered that CORBA implementation in Java did not
    properly protect repository identifiers (that can be obtained
    using _ids() method) on certain Corba objects. This could
    have been used to perform modification of the data that should
    have been immutable.
  • CVE-2012-0507
    The AtomicReferenceArray class implementation did not properly
    check if the array is of an expected Object[] type. A
    malicious Java application or applet could use this flaw to
    cause Java Virtual Machine to crash or bypass Java sandbox
    restrictions.

For the stable distribution (squeeze), these problems have been fixed in
version 6b18-1.8.13-0+squeeze1.

For the testing distribution (wheezy) and the unstable distribution
(sid), these problems have been fixed in version 6b24-1.11.1-1.

We recommend that you upgrade your openjdk-6 packages.
