Discussion

Sun Java Web Console LibWebconsole_Services.SO Format String Vulnerability

Sun Java Web Console is prone to a format-string vulnerability because the application fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input before passing it as the format specifier to a formatted-printing function.

A successful attack may crash the application or possibly lead to arbitrary code execution, which may help the attacker gain unauthorized access to privileged data or escalate their privileges in the context of the user running the application.
