Security readout for executives and security teams

This CVE describes a remote code execution flaw in Sun Java JRE 6 Update 13's Deployment Toolkit ActiveX control. A malicious web page or similar ActiveX-loading context could pass oversized strings and potentially run code on the affected Windows user’s system. Exposure is most likely on Windows endpoints with Sun Java SE Runtime Environment 6 Update 13 and the vulnerable Deployment Toolkit ActiveX control available to Internet Explorer or ActiveX-capable software. Prioritize remediation where legacy Java and ActiveX remain in use, especially on user workstations. Although active exploitation is not confirmed in the bundle, remote code execution and a public exploit reference make lingering exposure unacceptable. Mitigation focus: Inventory endpoints for JRE 6 Update 13 and deploytk.dll 6.0.130.3.; Check Oracle or vendor guidance for supported remediation or replacement steps.; Remove the affected runtime where business applications no longer require it..
