Description

The Java Runtime Environment (JRE) for Sun JDK and JRE 6 Update 10 and earlier, JDK and JRE 5.0 Update 16 and earlier as well as SDK and JRE 1.4.2_18 and earlier do not properly enforce context of ZoneInfo objects during deserialization. This allows remote attackers to run untrusted applets and applications in a privileged context.
