Alerts appeared on ibm's $URL. Good that we done 1.5.0.9 - it's fixed. For 1.4
and 1.6 there are not yet releases, as usual :/

------- Comment #6 From Raphael Marichez 2009-02-27 22:56:07 0000 -------
Due to impacts like DoS, privilege escalation and remote execution of arbitrary
code, i set the bug to B3.

I would vote for a GLSA because of the numerous possible attack vectors and the
very wide usage of Java.

------- Comment #7 From Vlastimil Babka (Caster) 2009-03-29 23:12:02 0000 -------
ppc/ppc64 please stabilize ibm-jdk-bin-1.6.0.4 distfiles are being uploaded as

Arches please stabilize ibm-jdk-bin and ibm-jre-bin 1.4.2.13. Distfiles as
usual.

------- Comment #10 From Joe Jezak 2009-04-02 22:13:54 0000 -------
Marked 1.4.2.13 ppc/ppc64 stable.

------- Comment #11 From Joe Jezak 2009-04-03 12:58:32 0000 -------
Removing ppc/ppc64 CC's (sorry for the bugspam).

All's left is GLSA then, covering also bug 233652

You forgot ibm-jre-bin, please do.

------- Comment #15 From Vlastimil Babka (Caster) 2009-04-21 19:18:38 0000 -------
Also please note that the distfiles of 1.6 were meanwhile changed upstream and
redigested (bug 265760) so take care not to redigest with the old ones - remove
DISTDIR/ibm-java-*6.0-4.0* or use FEATURES=assume-digests etc...

------- Comment #16 From Vlastimil Babka (Caster) 2009-04-22 13:03:48 0000 -------
So, apparently 1.5.0.9 was not fixed, IBM released a security update, which I
bumped as 1.5.0.9-r1. They didn't care to rename the versions distfiles though.
To prevent users from renaming distfiles of the fixed version (in order to
coexist with the old version), the old ebuild was updated to expect old
distfiles to be renamed to .old.tgz.

So, please stabilize 1.5.0.9-r1, you need to download new distfiles from usual
place and rename or replace the old distfiles. Take care also about comment 15.
Sorry that their naming schemes suck.

------- Comment #17 From Brent Baude 2009-04-22 14:30:25 0000 -------
ppc and ppc64 done

------- Comment #18 From Markus Meier 2009-05-01 14:21:29 0000 -------
amd64/x86 stable, all arches done.

------- Comment #19 From Stefan Behte 2009-08-08 22:45:56 0000 -------
Remote passive execution of arbitrary code is B2.
Added to already existing glsa.
