HTTP: Oracle Java ImageRepresentation.setPixels Integer Overflow

This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability against Oracle Java. The vulnerability is due to improper validation of image and raster dimensions in the sun.awt.image.ImageRepresentation.setPixels method. A remote attacker can exploit this vulnerability by enticing the target user to visit a specially crafted web page. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability can allow execution of arbitrary code on a target system.
