site_archiver@lists.apple.com Delivered-To: security-announce@lists.apple.com -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 APPLE-SA-2005-09-13 Java Security Update Java Security Update is now available and delivers the following security enhancements for Mac OS X v10.3.9: Java Available for: Java 1.4.2 Impact: Java is updated to version 1.4.2_09 Description: This release updates Java to version 1.4.2_09 to address a number of issues. Further information is available in the 1.4.2_09 section of Sun's release notes at http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/ReleaseNotes.html Credit to Sun and Marc Schoenefeld for notifying us about these issues. Java CVE-ID: CAN-2005-2527 Available for: Java 1.4.2 Impact: A file race condition can lead to file corruption or the creation of arbitrary files Description: This is specific to the implementation of Java on Mac OS X. Under certain conditions, Java may insecurely handle a temporary directory. Subsequent file operations inside that directory could be exposed to file race conditions. This update addresses the problem by adding validation when operating in the temporary directory. Java Available for: Java 1.3.1 Impact: Java is updated to version 1.3.1_16 Description: This release updates Java to version 1.3.1_16 to address a number of issues. Further information is available in the 1.3.1_16 section of Sun's release notes at http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/ReleaseNotes.html Java CVE-ID: CAN-2005-2530 Available for: Java 1.3.1 Impact: An untrusted applet could gain elevated privileges Description: This is specific to the implementation of Java on Mac OS X. A vulnerability in Apple's implementation of Java allows an untrusted applet to elevate privileges when using Mac OS X specific extensions. This update addresses the issue by implementing additional security checks. This issue does not affect Java on Mac OS X v10.4 or later. Java CVE-ID: CAN-2005-2738 Available for: Java 1.4.2 Impact: Network traffic intended for a particular Java ServerSocket could be intercepted by another one Description: This is specific to the implementation of Java on Mac OS X. It is possible for the same port to be opened as a Java ServerSocket multiple times without reporting an error. This can allow a Java program to intercept data intended for the ServerSocket of a different Java program. This update causes an exception to be thrown if a port is already in use. This issue does not affect Java on Mac OS X v10.4 or later. Credit to Jeremy Pfeifer of the University of Saskatchewan for reporting this issue.
