Description Tomas Hoger 2013-10-14 11:41:44 UTC
Multiple access control checks problems were found in the Swing component code for MacOS platform. An untrusted Java application or applet could possibly use these flaws to bypass Java sandbox restrictions.

Comment 1 Tomas Hoger 2013-10-14 11:43:52 UTC
These issues are in the MacOSX specific code and do not affect Linux.

Statement:

Not vulnerable. This issue did not affect the versions of Java as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 and 6.
