Descriptions

The Java Web Start implementation in Sun Java SE 6 before Update 15 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (NullPointerException) via a crafted .jnlp file, as demonstrated by the jnlp_file/appletDesc/index.html#misc test in the Technology Compatibility Kit (TCK) for the Java Network Launching Protocol (JNLP).

La implementación de Java Web Start en Sun Java SE v6 anteriores a Update 15 permite a los atacantes dependientes del contexto provocar una denegación de servicio (excepción de puntero nulo) mediante un fichero .jnlp modificado, como se ha demostrado al probar jnlp_file/appletDesc/index.html#misc en el Technology Compatibility Kit (TCK) para el Java Network Launching Protocol (JNLP).
