This signature detects attempts to exploit a known remote code execution vulnerability in Oracle Java Runtime Environment. It is due to a design weakness in loading configuration files. Remote attackers can exploit this by enticing target users to download a malicious dll file. A successful attack can result in loading the attacker-controlled library and execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the logged-in user. If a user is logged-on with administrative user rights, an attacker can take complete control of the affected system.
