The version of Sun Java Runtime Environment (JRE) installed on the remote host is earlier than 6 Update 17 / 5.0 Update 22 / 1.4.2_24 / 1.3.1_27.  Such versions are potentially affected by the following security issues :

  - The Java update mechanism on non-English versions does     not update the JRE when a new version is available.
    (269868)

  - A command execution vulnerability exists in the Java     runtime environment deployment toolkit. (269869)

  - An issue in the Java web start installer may be     leveraged to allow an untrusted Java web start     application to run as a trusted application. (269870)

  - Multiple buffer and integer overflow vulnerabilities.
    (270474)

  - A security vulnerability in the JRE with verifying HMAC     digests may allow authentication to be bypassed.     (270475)

  - Two vulnerabilities in the JRE with decoding DER encoded     data and parsing HTTP headers may separately allow a     remote client to cause the JRE on the server to run out     of memory, resulting in a denial of service. (270476)

  - A directory traversal vulnerability in the     ICC_Profile.getInstance method allows a remote attacker     to determine the existence of local International Color     Consortium (ICC) profile files. (Bug #6631533)

  - A denial of service attack is possible via a BMP file     containing a link to a UNC share pathname for an     International Color Consortium (ICC) profile file.     (Bug #6632445)

  - Resurrected classloaders can still have children,     which could allow a remote attacker to gain     privileges via unspecified vectors. (Bug #6636650)

  - The Abstract Window Toolkit (AWT) does not properly     restrict the objects that may be sent to loggers, which     allows attackers to obtain sensitive information via     vectors related to the implementation of Component,     KeyboardFocusManager, and DefaultKeyboardFocusManager.     (Bug #6664512)

  - An unspecified vulnerability in TrueType font parsing     functionality may lead to a denial of service. (Bug     #6815780)

  - The failure to clone arrays returned by the     getConfigurations function could lead to multiple,     unspecified vulnerabilities in the X11 and     Win32GraphicsDevice subsystems. (Bug #6822057)

  - The TimeZone.getTimeZone method can be used by a remote     attacker to determine the existence of local files via     its handling of zoneinfo (aka tz) files. (Bug #6824265)

  - Java Web Start does not properly handle the interaction     between a signed JAR file and a JNLP application or     applet. (Bug #6870531)
