NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream java-1.5.0-ibm-plugin package and not the java-1.5.0-ibm-plugin package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:10 relevant fixed versions and status.

The Java Plug-in in Java SE Development Kit (JDK) and Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 Update 12, 11, and 10 allows user-assisted remote attackers to cause a trusted applet to run in an older JRE version, which can be used to exploit vulnerabilities in that older version, aka CR 6706490.
