The IBM 1.5.0 Java release includes the IBM Java 2 Runtime Environment and
the IBM Java 2 Software Development Kit.
A denial of service flaw was found in the way certain strings were
converted to Double objects. A remote attacker could use this flaw to cause
Java based applications to hang, for example, if they parsed Double values
in a specially-crafted HTTP request. (CVE-2010-4476)
All users of java-1.5.0-ibm are advised to upgrade to these updated
packages, containing the IBM 1.5.0 SR12-FP3 Java release. All running
instances of IBM Java must be restarted for this update to take effect.
