Java as a technology has been both celebrated and reviled due to its effect on enterprise security over the years. Unfortunately, Java has held steady while other platforms continue to improve security in both their development models and deployments. This webcast will cover the most critical java-based security flaws and demonstrate the use of Metasploit in exploiting them. The target list will include web browsers, mobile platforms, embedded devices, application servers, and RPC services.
