Description Marc Schoenefeld 2008-06-24 09:59:35 UTC 
From Sun pre-notification, 6/23/2008

1. 6542088
A vulnerability in the Java™ Runtime Environment with processing XML data may 
allow unauthorized access to certain URL resources (such as some files and web 
pages) or a Denial of Service (DoS) condition to be created on the system 
running the JRE.

For this vulnerability to be exploited, the JAX-WS client or service in a 
trusted application needs to process XML data that contains malicious content. 
This vulnerability cannot be exploited through an untrusted applet or untrusted 
Java Web Start application.
