This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Oracle Java Runtime Environment. Interaction with the JavaFX library is required to exploit this vulnerability but attack vectors may vary depending on the implementation. The specific flaw exists within the rendering of HTML in JavaFX. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of user-supplied data, which can result in a write past the end of an allocated data structure. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current process.
