Descriptions

The IcedTea-Web plugin before 1.2.1 does not properly handle NPVariant NPStrings without NUL terminators, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash), obtain sensitive information from memory, or execute arbitrary code via a crafted Java applet.

El complemento IcedTea-Web anterior a v1.2.1 no maneja adecuadamente los (NPVariant) (NPStrings) sin terminadores NUL, lo que permite a atacantes remotos causar una denegación de servicio (caída), obtener información sensible de la memoria, o ejecutar código arbitrario a través de un (applet) de Java manipulado.
