Description Marc Schoenefeld 2007-11-22 10:38:56 UTC
The font routines of the current Java Virtual machine 
can be misused to fill up the free disk space of 
the current user with a large tmp file which cannot 
not be deleted before the browser is closed. 
Other applications are affected due to missing 
disk space.
