Sun Java 1.3.1, 1.4.1, and 1.4.2 allows local users to cause a denial of service (JVM crash), possibly by calling the ClassDepth function with a null parameter, which causes a crash instead of generating a null pointer exception.
Race condition in Java 1.4.2 before 1.4.2 Release 2 on Apple Mac OS X allows local users to corrupt files or create arbitrary files via unspecified attack vectors related to a temporary directory, possibly due to a symlink attack.
