Description Marc Schoenefeld 2008-03-06 12:54:31 UTC
A security vulnerability in the Java Plug-in may allow an applet that is
downloaded from a website to bypass the same origin policy and leverage this
flaw to execute local applications that are accessible to the user running the
untrusted applet.
