Alpine: icedtea-web: security update to 1.2-r1 (deprecated)

critical Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 401208

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities referenced in the following CVEs:

- The getFirstInTableInstance function in the IcedTea-Web plugin before 1.2.1 returns an uninitialized
pointer when the instance_to_id_map hash is empty, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of
service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted web page, which causes an uninitialized
memory location to be read. (CVE-2012-3422)

- The IcedTea-Web plugin before 1.2.1 does not properly handle NPVariant NPStrings without NUL terminators,
which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash), obtain sensitive information from
memory, or execute arbitrary code via a crafted Java applet. (CVE-2012-3423)
