Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Microsoft Virtual Machine (VM) versions 5.0.3805 and earlier

Description: The issue allows remote attackers to determine a local user's username via a Java applet that accesses the user.dir system property.

Recommendations: For versions 5.0.3805 and earlier, consider restricting access to Java applets that can access system properties until a fix is available. As a temporary workaround, disabling the ability of Java applets to access the user.dir system property may help minimize the risk of exploitation.
