1. Summary:

 

Updated java-1.5.0-bea packages that correct several security issues are

now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 Extras and 5 Supplementary.

 

This update has been rated as having moderate security impact by the Red

Hat Security Response Team.

 

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

3. Description:

 

The BEA WebLogic JRockit 1.5.0_14 JRE and SDK contain BEA WebLogic JRockit

Virtual Machine 1.5.0_14, and are certified for the Java 5 Platform,

Standard Edition, v1.5.0.

 

A flaw was found in the Java XSLT processing classes. An untrusted

application or applet could cause a denial of service, or execute arbitrary

code with the permissions of the user running the JRE. (CVE-2008-1187)

 

A flaw was found in the JRE image parsing libraries. An untrusted

application or applet could cause a denial of service, or possibly execute

arbitrary code with the permissions of the user running the JRE.

A flaw was found in the JRE color management library. An untrusted

application or applet could trigger a denial of service (JVM crash).
