tag_insight = "The IcedTea-Web project provides a Java web browser plug-in and an
  implementation of Java Web Start, which is based on the Netx project. It
  also contains a configuration tool for managing deployment settings for the
  plug-in and Web Start implementations.

  An uninitialized pointer use flaw was found in the IcedTea-Web plug-in.
  Visiting a malicious web page could possibly cause a web browser using the
  IcedTea-Web plug-in to crash, disclose a portion of its memory, or execute
  arbitrary code. (CVE-2012-3422)

  It was discovered that the IcedTea-Web plug-in incorrectly assumed all
  strings received from the browser were NUL terminated. When using the
  plug-in with a web browser that does not NUL terminate strings, visiting a
  web page containing a Java applet could possibly cause the browser to
  crash, disclose a portion of its memory, or execute arbitrary code.
  (CVE-2012-3423)

  This erratum also upgrades IcedTea-Web to version 1.2.1. Refer to the NEWS
  file, linked to in the References, for further information.

  All IcedTea-Web users should upgrade to these updated packages, which
  resolve these issues. Web browsers using the IcedTea-Web browser plug-in
  must be restarted for this update to take effect.";
