java (jre, j2sdk) (SSA:2005-170-01)

Posted by Philipp Esselbach on: 06/20/2005 05:07 AM [ Print | 0 comment(s) ]

Sun has released a couple of security advisories pertaining to both the Java Runtime Environment and the Standard Edition Development Kit. These could allow applets to read or write to local files. For more details, Sun's advisories may be found here:

http://sunsolve.sun.com/search/document.do?assetkey=1-26-101749-1

Slackware repackage's Sun's Java(TM) binaries without changing them, so the packages from Slackware -current should be used for all glibc based Slackware versions.




Here are the details from the Slackware -current ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
Sun Jun 19 21:45:07 PDT 2005
l/jre-1_5_0_03-i586-1.tgz: This already-issued package fixes some
recently announced security issues that could allow applets to read
or write to local files. See:
http://sunsolve.sun.com/search/document.do?assetkey=1-26-101748-1
http://sunsolve.sun.com/search/document.do?assetkey=1-26-101749-1
(* Security fix *)
extra/j2sdk-1.5.0_03/j2sdk-1_5_0_03-i586-1.tgz: Fixed the slack-desc
to not include the release version to prevent future mishaps. :-)
