openjdk-6 advisories, DSA-2311-1 and DSA-2356-1.

Integer overflow errors in the JPEG and font parser allow
untrusted code (including applets) to elevate its privileges.
CVE-2011-0864
Hotspot, the just-in-time compiler in OpenJDK, mishandled
certain byte code instructions, allowing untrusted code
(including applets) to crash the virtual machine.
CVE-2011-0865
A race condition in signed object deserialization could
allow untrusted code to modify signed content, apparently
leaving its signature intact.
CVE-2011-0867
Untrusted code (including applets) could access information
about network interfaces which was not intended to be public.
(Note that the interface MAC address is still available to

CVE-2011-0868
A float-to-long conversion could overflow, , allowing
untrusted code (including applets) to crash the virtual
machine.
