+ <background>
+ <p>
+ Sun and Blackdown both provide implementations of the Java
+ Development Kit (JDK) and Java Runtime Environment (JRE).
+ </p>

+ <description>
+ <p>
+ Adam Gowdiak discovered multiple vulnerabilities in the Java
+ Runtime Environment's Reflection APIs that may allow untrusted applets
+ to elevate privileges.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ A remote attacker could embed a malicious Java applet in a web
+ page and entice a victim to view it. This applet can then bypass
+ security restrictions and execute any command or access any file with
+ the rights of the user running the web browser.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There are no known workarounds at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All Sun JDK users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=dev-java/sun-jdk-1.4.2.09"</code>
+ <p>
+ All Sun JRE users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=dev-java/sun-jre-bin-1.4.2.09"</code>
+ <p>
+ All Blackdown JDK users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=dev-java/blackdown-jdk-1.4.2.03"</code>
+ <p>
+ All Blackdown JRE users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=dev-java/blackdown-jre-1.4.2.03"</code>
+ <p>
+ Note to SPARC and PPC users: There is no stable secure
+ Blackdown Java for the SPARC or PPC architectures. Affected users on
+ the PPC architecture should consider switching to the IBM Java packages
+ (ibm-jdk-bin and ibm-jre-bin). Affected users on the SPARC should
+ remove the package until a SPARC package is released.
