Description:
A security issue has been reported in Sun Java Dynamic Management Kit (DMK), which can be exploited by malicious, local users to gain escalated privileges.

The security issue is caused due to an unspecified error in the JMX RMI-IIOP API and can be exploited to gain access to certain local data. Successful exploitation requires that the user creates a JMX RMI-IIOP server application and a privileged user connects to the application.

The security issue is reported in the following versions:
