Technical details

An integrity bypass vulnerability in Oracle Java SE's networking component allows unauthenticated attackers with network access to modify data through multiple protocols without prior authentication or user interaction. The vulnerability is exploitable only when untrusted data is supplied directly to APIs in the networking component, not via Java Web Start or applets. Successful exploitation results in unauthorized modification of accessible data.
