Description:
Several vulnerabilities were reported in Java Plug-in. A remote user can read/write files and execute applications on the target user's system.
A remote user can create an applet that, when loaded by the target user, will read and write local files or execute applications on the target system with the privileges of the target user [CVE-2009-1103].
A remote user can create an applet that, when loaded from the localhost interface, will connect to arbitrary ports on the target system [CVE-2009-1104].
A remote user can create an applet that, when loaded by the target user, will load on a prior version of JRE (if permitted to run). JavaScript code hosted on the same web page as the applet can exploit known vulnerabilities in the requested version of JRE [CVE-2009-1105].
A remote user can create an applet that, when loaded by the target user, will trigger a flaw in the parsing of 'crossdomain.xml' files to connect to arbitrary sites that provide a 'crossdomain.xml' file instead of sites that allow the domain that the applet is running on [CVE-2009-1106].
A remote user can create a signed applet that, when loaded by the target user, will obscure the contents of the security dialog. A user may be convinced to trust the applet [CVE-2009-1107].
Gregory Fleischer reported one of these vulnerabilities. Michael Scheirl reported one of these vulnerabilities.

Impact:
A remote user can obtain privileges on the target system.
