IBM Java 1.4.2 was updated to 13 fp3.

The following security issues were fixed: CVE-2009-3867: A buffer overflow vulnerability in the Java Runtime Environment audio system might allow an untrusted applet or Java Web Start application to escalate privileges. For example, an untrusted applet might grant itself permissions to read and write local files, or run local applications that are accessible to the user running the untrusted applet.

  - A security vulnerability in the Java Runtime Environment     with verifying HMAC digests might allow authentication     to be bypassed. This action can allow a user to forge a     digital signature that would be accepted as valid.
    Applications that validate HMAC-based digital signatures     might be vulnerable to this type of attack.
    (CVE-2009-3875)

  - A buffer overflow vulnerability in the Java Runtime     Environment with processing image files might allow an     untrusted applet or Java Web Start application to     escalate privileges. For example, an untrusted applet     might grant itself permissions to read and write local     files or run local applications that are accessible to     the user running the untrusted applet. (CVE-2009-3869)

  - A buffer overflow vulnerability in the Java Runtime     Environment with processing image files might allow an     untrusted applet or Java Web Start application to     escalate privileges. For example, an untrusted applet     might grant itself permissions to read and write local     files or run local applications that are accessible to     the user running the untrusted applet. (CVE-2009-3871)

  - An integer overflow vulnerability in the Java Runtime     Environment with processing JPEG images might allow an     untrusted applet or Java Web Start application to     escalate privileges. For example, an untrusted applet     might grant itself permissions to read and write local     files or run local applications that are accessible to     the user running the untrusted applet. (CVE-2009-3874)
