Impact A vulnerability in the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) involving object deserialization could be exploited remotely to cause the Java Virtual Machine to become unresponsive, which is a type of Denial-of-Service (DoS). This issue can affect the JRE if an application that runs on it accepts serialized data from an untrusted source. Sun acknowledges with thanks, Marc Schoenefeld, for bringing this issue to our attention. 2. Contributing Factors This issue can occur in the following releases: * SDK and JRE 1.4.2_05 and earlier, and all 1.4.1 and 1.4.0 releases for Windows, Solaris and Linux Note: JDK and JRE 5.0 and releases prior to SDK and JRE 1.4 are not affected by this issue. To determine the version of Java on a system, the following command can be run: % java -fullversion java full version "1.4.1_06-b01" 3. Symptoms The Java Runtime Environment (JRE) is unresponsive.
