icedtea-web is vulnerable to authorization bypass. It was discovered that IcedTea-Web did not properly determine an applet’s origin when asking the user if the applet should be run. A malicious page could use this flaw to cause IcedTea-Web to execute the applet without user approval, or confuse the user into approving applet execution based on an incorrectly indicated applet origin.
