JRE is the Sun Java Runtime Environment, a minimal software packaged designed to allow the execution of Java. It is maintained and distributed by Sun Microsystems. A problem in the JRE could allow for the arbitrary execution of commands. This problem does not affect the JRE until a user has granted access to the piece of java code to execute a command. Once access has been granted, it may be possible to embed and execute other commands in succession. However, the JRE is not vulnerable to this problem by default, and requires a user declaring trust in the malicious code to allow exploitation.
