  <description>
    <p>
    An integer overflow vulnerability exists in the embedded ICC profile
    image parser (CVE-2007-2788), an unspecified vulnerability exists in
    the font parsing implementation (CVE-2007-4381), and an error exists
    when processing XSLT stylesheets contained in XSLT Transforms in XML
    signatures (CVE-2007-3716), among other vulnerabilities.
    </p>
  </description>
  <impact type="normal">
    <p>
    A remote attacker could trigger the integer overflow to execute
    arbitrary code or crash the JVM through a specially crafted file. Also,
    an attacker could perform unauthorized actions via an applet that
    grants certain privileges to itself because of the font parsing
    vulnerability. The error when processing XSLT stylesheets can be
    exploited to execute arbitrary code. Other vulnerabilities could lead
    to establishing restricted network connections to certain services,
    Cross Site Scripting and Denial of Service attacks.
    </p>
  </impact>
  <workaround>
    <p>
    There is no known workaround at this time for all these
    vulnerabilities.
    </p>
  </workaround>
  <resolution>
    <p>
    All BEA JRockit users should upgrade to the latest version:
    </p>
    <code>
    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=dev-java/jrockit-jdk-bin-1.5.0.11_p1&quot;</code>
  </resolution>
