CVE-2010-3569
Publication date 19 October 2010
Last updated 24 July 2024
Ubuntu priority
Unspecified vulnerability in the Java Runtime Environment component in Oracle Java SE and Java for Business 6 Update 21, 5.0 Update 25, and 1.4.2_27 allows remote attackers to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability via unknown vectors. NOTE: the previous information was obtained from the October 2010 CPU. Oracle has not commented on claims from a reliable downstream vendor that this allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by causing the defaultReadObject method in the Serialization API to set a volatile field multiple times.
From the Ubuntu Security Team
It was discovered that the defaultReadObject of the Serialization API could be tricked into setting a volatile field multiple times. This could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running a java applet or application.
