Exploit:JS/Coolex.D can install other malware infections on the corrupted PC through exploiting software vulnerabilities in Java version 7, update 17 and earlier.

If the attacked computer user has Java, Adobe Flash, or Adobe Reader in the PC, Exploit:JS/Coolex.D may strive to exploit particular software vulnerabilities in these applications to install malware threats.
