+	  <p>CVE-2012-3422: Use of uninitialized instance pointers</p>
+	  <p>An uninitialized pointer use flaw was found in IcedTea-Web web
+	    browser plugin.  A malicious web page could use this flaw make
+	    IcedTea-Web browser plugin pass invalid pointer to a web browser.
+	    Depending on the browser used, it may cause the browser to crash
+	    or possibly execute arbitrary code.</p>
+	  <p>The get_cookie_info() and get_proxy_info() call
+	    getFirstInTableInstance() with the instance_to_id_map hash as
+	    a parameter.  If instance_to_id_map is empty (which can happen
+	    when plugin was recently removed), getFirstInTableInstance()
+	    returns an uninitialized pointer.</p>

+	<blockquote cite="https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=841345">;
+	  <p>CVE-2012-3423: Incorrect handling of non 0-terminated strings</p>
+	  <p>It was discovered that the IcedTea-Web web browser plugin
+	    incorrectly assumed that all strings provided by browser are NUL
+	    terminated, which is not guaranteed by the NPAPI (Netscape Plugin
+	    Application Programming Interface).  When used in a browser that
+	    does not NUL terminate NPVariant NPStrings, this could lead to
+	    buffer over-read or over-write, resulting in possible information
+	    leak, crash, or code execution.</p>
+	  <p>Mozilla browsers currently NUL terminate strings, however recent
+	    Chrome versions are known not to provide NUL terminated data.</p>
