The Abstract Window Toolkit (AWT) implementation in Sun Java SE 6 before Update 15 on Windows 2000 Professional does not provide a Security Warning Icon, which makes it easier for context-dependent attackers to trick a user into interacting unsafely with an untrusted applet.
The Java Web Start implementation in Sun Java SE 6 before Update 15 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (NullPointerException) via a crafted .jnlp file, as demonstrated by the jnlpfile/appletDesc/index.html#misc test in the Technology Compatibility Kit (TCK) for the Java Network Launching Protocol (JNLP).
The encoder in Sun Java SE 6 before Update 15, and OpenJDK, grants read access to private variables with unspecified names, which allows context-dependent attackers to obtain sensitive information via an untrusted (1) applet or (2) application.
JDK13Services.getProviders in Sun Java SE 5.0 before Update 20 and 6 before Update 15, and OpenJDK, grants full privileges to instances of unspecified object types, which allows context-dependent attackers to bypass intended access restrictions via an untrusted (1) applet or (2) application.
The plugin functionality in Sun Java SE 6 before Update 15 does not properly implement version selection, which allows context-dependent attackers to leverage vulnerabilities in "old zip and certificate handling" and have unspecified other impact via unknown vectors.
Unspecified vulnerability in the javax.swing.plaf.synth.SynthContext.isSubregion method in the Swing implementation in Sun Java SE 6 before Update 15 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (NullPointerException in the Jemmy library) via unknown vectors.
The Java Management Extensions (JMX) implementation in Sun Java SE 6 before Update 15, and OpenJDK, does not properly enforce OpenType checks, which allows context-dependent attackers to bypass intended access restrictions by leveraging finalizer resurrection to obtain a reference to a privileged object.
Sun Java SE 5.0 before Update 20 and 6 before Update 15, and OpenJDK, might allow context-dependent attackers to obtain sensitive information via vectors involving static variables that are declared without the final keyword, related to (1) LayoutQueue, (2) Cursor.predefined, (3) AccessibleResourceBundle.getContents, (4) ImageReaderSpi.STANDARDINPUTTYPE, (5) ImageWriterSpi.STANDARDOUTPUTTYPE, (6) the imageio plugins, (7) DnsContext.debug, (8) RmfFileReader/StandardMidiFileWriter.types, (9) AbstractSaslImpl.logger, (10) Synth.Region.uiToRegionMap/lowerCaseNameMap, (11) the Introspector class and a cache of BeanInfo, and (12) JAX-WS, a different vulnerability than CVE-2009-2673.
