Description Marc Schoenefeld 2007-10-07 11:57:48 UTC 
Sun describes a flaw at: 

http://sunsolve.sun.com/search/document.do?assetkey=1-26-103079-1

A vulnerability in the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) with applet caching may
allow an untrusted applet that is downloaded from a malicious website to make
network connections to network services on machines other than the one that the
applet was downloaded from. This may allow network resources (such as web pages)
and vulnerabilities (that exist on these network services) which are not
otherwise normally accessible to be accessed or exploited.
