Descriptions

The loadClass method of the sun.applet.AppletClassLoader class in the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) in Sun SDK and JRE 1.4.1_03 and earlier allows remote attackers to bypass sandbox restrictions and execute arbitrary code via a loaded class name that contains "/" (slash) instead of "." (dot) characters, which bypasses a call to the Security Manager's checkPackageAccess method.

El método loadClass de la clase sun.applet.AppletClassLoader en la Máquina Virtual de Java (JVM) en Sun SDK y JRE 1.4.1_03 y anteriores permite a atacantes remotos saltarles las restricciones del cajón de arena de Java y ejecutar código mediante una clase cargada que contenga caractéres "/" (barra) en lugar de "." punto, lo que evita la llamada al método del Adminstrador de Seguridad checkPackageAccess.
