Descriptions

Unspecified vulnerability in the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) in Oracle Java SE and Java for Business 6 Update 21 through 6 Update 23 allows remote untrusted Java Web Start applications and untrusted Java applets to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability via unknown vectors related to Deployment.

Vulnerabilidad no especificada en Java Runtime Environment (JRE) en Oracle Java SE y Java for Business v6 Update v21 hasta v6 Update v23 permite a aplicaciones remotas Java Web Start no confiables y Java applets no confiables vulnerar la confidencialidad, integridad y disponibilidad a través de vectores desconocidos relacionados con Deployment.

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Oracle's Java Runtime Environment. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file.
The specific flaw exists within the Java Webstart loader of the Java Runtime Environment. When parsing a .jnlp file containing an extension, the loader will honor the permissions defined within. This will allow one to explicitly define the security permissions of their java component which will then get executed. This will allow one to execute code outside of the context of the JRE sandbox.
