The 1.2.1 release of the JDK is strictly an interim security fix. What
used to be called 1.2.1 internally will be released as 1.2.2. I just
checked the bug report, and the plug-in bug has been fixed and
integrated into what was originally called 1.2.1, but will now be
called 1.2.2.
As I understand it, this 1.2.1 release is just the original Java 2
Release plus this one security fix, and no other fixes.
>From the JDK 1.2.1 download page:
There is a newly discovered implementation bug in
the JDK that poses a potential security risk by
allowing an untrusted applet to execute unverified
code under certain circumstances. It is an
implementation bug and not a flaw in the Java
security model or architecture. This bug has been
fixed in the JDK 1.2.1 release.
If you are interested, you can find more information about the specific
security problem at:
