Issue Date: 2012-09-04
CVE Numbers: CVE-2012-4681


These vulnerabilities may be remotely exploitable without 
authentication, i.e., they may be exploited over a network without the 
need for a username and password. To be successfully exploited, an 
unsuspecting user running an affected release in a browser will need to 
visit a malicious web page that leverages this vulnerability. Successful 
exploits can impact the availability, integrity, and confidentiality of 
the user's system.

In addition, this Security Alert includes a security-in-depth fix in the 
AWT subcomponent of the Java Runtime Environment.

Due to the severity of these vulnerabilities, the public disclosure of 
technical details and the reported exploitation of CVE-2012-4681 "in the 
wild," we strongly recommend that you apply the updates as soon as
possible.
