The remote Mac OS X host is running a version of Java for Mac OS X 10.5 that is missing Update 7.

The remote version of this software contains several security vulnerabilities, including some that may allow untrusted Java applets to obtain elevated privileges and lead to execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the current user.

The remote Mac OS X host is running a version of Java for Mac OS X 10.6 that is missing Update 2.

The remote version of this software contains several security vulnerabilities, including some that may allow untrusted Java applets to obtain elevated privileges and lead to execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the current user.

The version of Oracle (formerly Sun) Java Runtime Environment (JRE) installed on the remote host is earlier than 6 Update 20.  Such versions are potentially missing critical security updates.

As a result, the remote host could be affected by multiple vulnerabilities.
