3. Description:

These packages provide the OpenJDK 6 Java Runtime Environment and the
OpenJDK 6 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 instance if they parse Double values
in a specially-crafted HTTP request. (CVE-2010-4476)

All users of java-1.6.0-openjdk are advised to upgrade to these updated
packages, which resolve this issue. All running instances of OpenJDK Java
must be restarted for the update to take effect.

4. Solution:

Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.

This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to
use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at
