CVE-2009-1671

CVSS v2.0

9.3

High

VectorAV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Sun Java SE Runtime Environment (aka JRE) 6 Update 13
Description: The issue is related to multiple buffer overflows in the Deployment Toolkit ActiveX control. These overflows can be triggered by a long string argument to certain methods, including the setInstallerType, setAdditionalPackages, compareVersion, getStaticCLSID, or launch method. This can allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code.
Recommendations: For Sun Java SE Runtime Environment (aka JRE) 6 Update 13, consider disabling the Deployment Toolkit ActiveX control until a patch is available. Restrict access to the deploytk.dll to minimize the risk of exploitation. Avoid using long string arguments in the affected methods until the issue is resolved.
