Uočena je i ispravljena nova sigurnosna nepravilnost u radu programskog paketa openjdk-6. Spomenuti paket predstavlja radno i razvojno okruženje za aplikacije napisane u Java programskom jeziku. Navedeni se nedostatak javlja u metodi "doubleValue()" u FloatingDecimal.java kod analize pojedinih brojeva. Udaljeni ga napadač može iskoristiti za izvođenje napada uskraćivanja usluge (eng. Denial of Service). Budući da je objavljena nadogradnja koja otklanja problem, svi se korisnici upućuju na njezino korištenje.

Package        : openjdk-6
Vulnerability  : denial of service
Problem type   : local (remote)
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID         : CVE-2010-4476
Debian Bug     : 612660

It was discovered that the floating point parser in OpenJDK, an
implementation of the Java platform, can enter an infinite loop when
processing certain input strings.  Such input strings represent valid
numbers and can be contained in data supplied by an attacker over the
network, leading to a denial-of-service attack.

For the oldstable distribution (lenny), this problem will be fixed in
version 6b18-1.8.3-2~lenny1.  For technical reasons, this update will
be released separately.

For the stable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in
version 6b18-1.8.3-2+squeeze1.

For the testing distribution (wheezy) and the unstable distribution
(sid), this problem will be fixed soon.

We recommend that you upgrade your openjdk-6 packages.
