LinuxSecurity.com: Multiple security vulnerabilities has been identified and fixed in Little cms library embedded in OpenJDK: A memory leak flaw allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption and application crash) via a crafted image file (CVE-2009-0581). Multiple integer overflows allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted image file that triggers a heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-2009-0723). Multiple stack-based buffer overflows allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted image file associated with a large integer value for the (1) input or (2) output channel (CVE-2009-0733). A flaw in the transformations of monochrome profiles allows remote attackers to cause denial of service triggered by a NULL pointer dereference via a crafted image file (CVE-2009-0793). Further security fixes in the JRE and in the Java API of OpenJDK: A flaw in handling temporary font files by the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) allows remote attackers to cause denial of service (CVE-2006-2426). An integer overflow flaw was found in Pulse-Java when handling Pulse audio source data lines. An attacker could use this flaw to cause an applet to crash, leading to a denial of service (CVE-2009-0794). A flaw in Java Runtime Environment initialized LDAP connections allows authenticated remote users to cause denial of service on the LDAP service (CVE-2009-1093). A flaw in the Java Runtime Environment LDAP client in handling server LDAP responses allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on the client side via malicious server response (CVE-2009-1094). Buffer overflows in the the Java Runtime Environment unpack200 utility allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via an crafted applet (CVE-2009-1095, CVE-2009-1096). A buffer overflow in the splash screen processing allows a attackers to execute arbitrary code (CVE-2009-1097). A buffer overflow in GIF images handling allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via an crafted GIF image (CVE-2009-1098). A flaw in the Java API for XML Web Services (JAX-WS) service endpoint handling allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service on the service endpoint's server side (CVE-2009-1101). A flaw in the Java Runtime Environment Virtual Machine code generation allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted applet (CVE-2009-1102). This update provides fixes for these issues. Update: java-1.6.0-openjdk requires rhino packages and these has been further updated.
