Hi y'all, the celebration week for Java is over, so let's come back to some old bugs. 2,5 years ago I found a bug in 1.4.2_02 which let browsers crash. Naively I submitted the bug to their database and waited that the bug would be fixed. But until now, nothing happened. Therefore I donate the bug to the public, it is described here: http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=4944300 You can test it here, as it crashes all known browsers, enabled with java plugin up until 1.4.2_11 and 1.5.0_06, be sure to save your work before trying: http://www.illegalaccess.org/exploit/ObjectStackOverflow.html Yes, I know there were more important things to do at Sun, like getting all 4 legs on the new 1.6.0 version, was it called mule or mustang, I don't remember. Cheers Marc
