Descriptions
Off-by-one error in the invoke function in IcedTeaScriptablePluginObject.cc in IcedTea-Web 1.1.x before 1.1.7, 1.2.x before 1.2.2, 1.3.x before 1.3.1, and 1.4.x before 1.4.1 allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information, cause a denial of service (crash), or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted webpage that triggers a heap-based buffer overflow, related to an error message and a "triggering event attached to applet." NOTE: the 1.4.x versions were originally associated with CVE-2013-4349, but that entry has been MERGED with this one.
Error off-by-one en la función de invoke en IcedTeaScriptablePluginObject.cc en IcedTea-Web v1.1.x antes de v1.1.7, v1.2.x antes de v1.2.2, y v1.3.x antes de v1.3.1, permite a atacantes remotos obtener información sensible, provocar una denegación de servicio (caída) o posiblemente ejecutar código arbitrario a través de una página web diseñada que provoca un desbordamiento de búfer basado en memoria dinámica, en relación con un mensaje de error y un "evento desencadenante unido a applet."
Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in the IcedTea JDK, the worst of which could lead to arbitrary code execution. Versions less than 6.1.13.3 are affected.
