FreeBSD : jdk/jre -- Security Vulnerability With Java Plugin (ac619d06-3ef8-11d9-8741-c942c075aa41)

high Nessus Plugin ID 37437

Synopsis

The remote FreeBSD host is missing one or more security-related updates.

Description

The Sun Java Plugin capability in Java 2 Runtime Environment (JRE) 1.4.2_01, 1.4.2_04, and possibly earlier versions, does not properly restrict access between JavaScript and Java applets during data transfer, which allows remote attackers to load unsafe classes and execute arbitrary code.

Solution

Update the affected packages.
