Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Oracle Linux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Updated java-1.6.0-openjdk packages that fix several security issues are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.

This update has been rated as having important security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team.

These packages provide the OpenJDK 6 Java Runtime Environment and the OpenJDK 6 Software Development Kit. The Java Runtime Environment (JRE) contains the software and tools that users need to run applications written using the Java programming language.

An integer overflow flaw and buffer overflow flaws were found in the way the JRE processed image files. An untrusted applet or application could use these flaws to extend its privileges, allowing it to read and write local files, as well as to execute local applications with the privileges of the user running the applet or application.
(CVE-2009-3869, CVE-2009-3871, CVE-2009-3873, CVE-2009-3874)

An information leak was found in the JRE. An untrusted applet or application could use this flaw to extend its privileges, allowing it to read and write local files, as well as to execute local applications with the privileges of the user running the applet or application. (CVE-2009-3881)

It was discovered that the JRE still accepts certificates with MD2 hash signatures, even though MD2 is no longer considered a cryptographically strong algorithm. This could make it easier for an attacker to create a malicious certificate that would be treated as trusted by the JRE. With this update, the JRE disables the use of the MD2 algorithm inside signatures by default. (CVE-2009-2409)

A timing attack flaw was found in the way the JRE processed HMAC digests. This flaw could aid an attacker using forged digital signatures to bypass authentication checks. (CVE-2009-3875)

Two denial of service flaws were found in the JRE. These could be exploited in server-side application scenarios that process DER-encoded (Distinguished Encoding Rules) data. (CVE-2009-3876, CVE-2009-3877)

An information leak was found in the way the JRE handled color profiles. An attacker could use this flaw to discover the existence of files outside of the color profiles directory. (CVE-2009-3728)

A flaw in the JRE with passing arrays to the X11GraphicsDevice API was found. An untrusted applet or application could use this flaw to access and modify the list of supported graphics configurations. This flaw could also lead to sensitive information being leaked to unprivileged code. (CVE-2009-3879)

It was discovered that the JRE passed entire objects to the logging API. This could lead to sensitive information being leaked to either untrusted or lower-privileged code from an attacker-controlled applet which has access to the logging API and is therefore able to manipulate (read and/or call) the passed objects. (CVE-2009-3880)

Potential information leaks were found in various mutable static variables. These could be exploited in application scenarios that execute untrusted scripting code. (CVE-2009-3882, CVE-2009-3883)

An information leak was found in the way the TimeZone.getTimeZone method was handled. This method could load time zone files that are outside of the [JRE_HOME]/lib/zi/ directory, allowing a remote attacker to probe the local file system. (CVE-2009-3884)

Note: The flaws concerning applets in this advisory, CVE-2009-3869, CVE-2009-3871, CVE-2009-3873, CVE-2009-3874, CVE-2009-3879, CVE-2009-3880, CVE-2009-3881 and CVE-2009-3884, can only be triggered in java-1.6.0-openjdk by calling the 'appletviewer' application.

All users of java-1.6.0-openjdk are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which resolve these issues. All running instances of OpenJDK Java must be restarted for the update to take effect.

The version of Sun Java Runtime Environment (JRE) installed on the remote host is earlier than 6 Update 17 / 5.0 Update 22 / 1.4.2_24 / 1.3.1_27.  Such versions are potentially affected by the following security issues :

  - The Java update mechanism on non-English versions does     not update the JRE when a new version is available.
    (269868)

  - A command execution vulnerability exists in the Java     runtime environment deployment toolkit. (269869)

  - An issue in the Java web start installer may be     leveraged to allow an untrusted Java web start     application to run as a trusted application. (269870)

  - Multiple buffer and integer overflow vulnerabilities     exist. (270474)

  - A security vulnerability in the JRE with verifying HMAC     digests may allow authentication to be bypassed.
    (270475)

  - Two vulnerabilities in the JRE with decoding DER encoded     data and parsing HTTP headers may separately allow a     remote client to cause the JRE on the server to run out     of memory, resulting in a denial of service. (270476)

  - A directory traversal vulnerability in the     ICC_Profile.getInstance method allows a remote attacker     to determine the existence of local International Color     Consortium (ICC) profile files. (Bug #6631533)

  - A denial of service attack is possible via a BMP file     containing a link to a UNC share pathname for an     International Color Consortium (ICC) profile file.
    (Bug #6632445)

  - Resurrected classloaders can still have children,     which could allow a remote attacker to gain     privileges via unspecified vectors (Bug #6636650)

  - The Abstract Window Toolkit (AWT) does not properly     restrict the objects that may be sent to loggers, which     allows attackers to obtain sensitive information via     vectors related to the implementation of Component,     KeyboardFocusManager, and DefaultKeyboardFocusManager.
    (Bug #6664512)

  - An unspecified vulnerability in TrueType font parsing     functionality may lead to a denial of service. (Bug     #6815780)

  - The failure to clone arrays returned by the     getConfigurations function could lead to multiple,     unspecified vulnerabilities in the X11 and     Win32GraphicsDevice subsystems. (Bug #6822057)

  - The TimeZone.getTimeZone method can be used by a remote     attacker to determine the existence of local files via     its handling of zoneinfo (aka tz) files. (Bug #6824265)

  - Java Web Start does not properly handle the interaction     between a signed JAR file and a JNLP application or     applet. (Bug #6870531)

All running instances of Sun Java must be restarted for the update to take effect.

Updated java-1.5.0-sun packages that correct several security issues are now available for Red Hat Network Satellite Server 5.1.

This update has been rated as having low security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team.

This update corrects several security vulnerabilities in the Sun Java Runtime Environment shipped as part of Red Hat Network Satellite Server 5.1. In a typical operating environment, these are of low security risk as the runtime is not used on untrusted applets.

Several flaws were fixed in the Sun Java 5 Runtime Environment.
(CVE-2006-2426, CVE-2008-2086, CVE-2009-1093, CVE-2009-1094, CVE-2009-1095, CVE-2009-1096, CVE-2009-1098, CVE-2009-1099, CVE-2009-1100, CVE-2009-1103, CVE-2009-1104, CVE-2009-1107, CVE-2009-2409, CVE-2009-2475, CVE-2009-2625, CVE-2009-2670, CVE-2009-2671, CVE-2009-2672, CVE-2009-2673, CVE-2009-2675, CVE-2009-2676, CVE-2009-2689, CVE-2009-3728, CVE-2009-3873, CVE-2009-3876, CVE-2009-3877, CVE-2009-3879, CVE-2009-3880, CVE-2009-3881, CVE-2009-3882, CVE-2009-3883, CVE-2009-3884)

Note: This is the final update for the java-1.5.0-sun packages, as the Sun Java SE Release family 5.0 has now reached End of Service Life.

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200911-02 (Sun JDK/JRE: Multiple vulnerabilities)

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in the Sun Java     implementation. Please review the CVE identifiers referenced below and     the associated Sun Alerts for details.
  Impact :

    A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted JAR     archive, applet, or Java Web Start application, possibly resulting in     the execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running     the application. Furthermore, a remote attacker could cause a Denial of     Service affecting multiple services via several vectors, disclose     information and memory contents, write or execute local files, conduct     session hijacking attacks via GIFAR files, steal cookies, bypass the     same-origin policy, load untrusted JAR files, establish network     connections to arbitrary hosts and posts via several vectors, modify     the list of supported graphics configurations, bypass HMAC-based     authentication systems, escalate privileges via several vectors and     cause applet code to be executed with older, possibly vulnerable     versions of the JRE.
    NOTE: Some vulnerabilities require a trusted environment, user     interaction, a DNS Man-in-the-Middle or Cross-Site-Scripting attack.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

Dan Kaminsky discovered that SSL certificates signed with MD2 could be spoofed given enough time. As a result, an attacker could potentially create a malicious trusted certificate to impersonate another site.
This update handles this issue by completely disabling MD2 for certificate validation in OpenJDK. (CVE-2009-2409)

It was discovered that ICC profiles could be identified with '..' pathnames. If a user were tricked into running a specially crafted applet, a remote attacker could gain information about a local system.
(CVE-2009-3728)

Peter Vreugdenhil discovered multiple flaws in the processing of graphics in the AWT library. If a user were tricked into running a specially crafted applet, a remote attacker could crash the application or run arbitrary code with user privileges.
(CVE-2009-3869, CVE-2009-3871)

Multiple flaws were discovered in JPEG and BMP image handling. If a user were tricked into loading a specially crafted image, a remote attacker could crash the application or run arbitrary code with user privileges. (CVE-2009-3873, CVE-2009-3874, CVE-2009-3885)

Coda Hale discovered that HMAC-based signatures were not correctly validated. Remote attackers could bypass certain forms of authentication, granting unexpected access. (CVE-2009-3875)

Multiple flaws were discovered in ASN.1 parsing. A remote attacker could send a specially crafted HTTP stream that would exhaust system memory and lead to a denial of service. (CVE-2009-3876, CVE-2009-3877)

It was discovered that the graphics configuration subsystem did not correctly handle arrays. If a user were tricked into running a specially crafted applet, a remote attacker could exploit this to crash the application or execute arbitrary code with user privileges.
(CVE-2009-3879)

It was discovered that loggers and Swing did not correctly handle certain sensitive objects. If a user were tricked into running a specially crafted applet, private information could be leaked to a remote attacker, leading to a loss of privacy. (CVE-2009-3880, CVE-2009-3882, CVE-2009-3883)

It was discovered that the ClassLoader did not correctly handle certain options. If a user were tricked into running a specially crafted applet, a remote attacker could execute arbitrary code with user privileges. (CVE-2009-3881)

It was discovered that time zone file loading could be used to determine the existence of files on the local system. If a user were tricked into running a specially crafted applet, private information could be leaked to a remote attacker, leading to a loss of privacy.
(CVE-2009-3884).

Note: This is the final update for the java-1.5.0-sun packages, as the Sun Java SE Release family 5.0 has now reached End of Service Life.
The next update will remove the java-1.5.0-sun packages.

An alternative to Sun Java SE 5.0 is the Java 2 Technology Edition of the IBM Developer Kit for Linux, which is available from the Extras and Supplementary channels on the Red Hat Network. For users of applications that are capable of using the Java 6 runtime, the OpenJDK open source JDK is included in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 (since 5.3) and is supported by Red Hat.

Users of java-1.5.0-sun should upgrade to these updated packages, which correct these issues. All running instances of Sun Java must be restarted for the update to take effect.

Updated java-1.6.0-sun packages that correct several security issues are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 Extras and 5 Supplementary.

This update has been rated as having critical security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team.

The Sun 1.6.0 Java release includes the Sun Java 6 Runtime Environment and the Sun Java 6 Software Development Kit.

This update fixes several vulnerabilities in the Sun Java 6 Runtime Environment and the Sun Java 6 Software Development Kit. These vulnerabilities are summarized on the 'Advance notification of Security Updates for Java SE' page from Sun Microsystems, listed in the References section. (CVE-2009-2409, CVE-2009-3728, CVE-2009-3729, CVE-2009-3865, CVE-2009-3866, CVE-2009-3867, CVE-2009-3868, CVE-2009-3869, CVE-2009-3871, CVE-2009-3872, CVE-2009-3873, CVE-2009-3874, CVE-2009-3875, CVE-2009-3876, CVE-2009-3877, CVE-2009-3879, CVE-2009-3880, CVE-2009-3881, CVE-2009-3882, CVE-2009-3883, CVE-2009-3884, CVE-2009-3886)

Users of java-1.6.0-sun should upgrade to these updated packages, which correct these issues. All running instances of Sun Java must be restarted for the update to take effect.

The version of Sun Java Runtime Environment (JRE) installed on the remote host is earlier than 6 Update 17 / 5.0 Update 22 / 1.4.2_24 / 1.3.1_27.  Such versions are potentially affected by the following security issues :

  - The Java update mechanism on non-English versions does     not update the JRE when a new version is available.
    (269868)

  - A command execution vulnerability exists in the Java     runtime environment deployment toolkit. (269869)

  - An issue in the Java web start installer may be     leveraged to allow an untrusted Java web start     application to run as a trusted application. (269870)

  - Multiple buffer and integer overflow vulnerabilities.
    (270474)

  - A security vulnerability in the JRE with verifying HMAC     digests may allow authentication to be bypassed.     (270475)

  - Two vulnerabilities in the JRE with decoding DER encoded     data and parsing HTTP headers may separately allow a     remote client to cause the JRE on the server to run out     of memory, resulting in a denial of service. (270476)

  - A directory traversal vulnerability in the     ICC_Profile.getInstance method allows a remote attacker     to determine the existence of local International Color     Consortium (ICC) profile files. (Bug #6631533)

  - A denial of service attack is possible via a BMP file     containing a link to a UNC share pathname for an     International Color Consortium (ICC) profile file.     (Bug #6632445)

  - Resurrected classloaders can still have children,     which could allow a remote attacker to gain     privileges via unspecified vectors. (Bug #6636650)

  - The Abstract Window Toolkit (AWT) does not properly     restrict the objects that may be sent to loggers, which     allows attackers to obtain sensitive information via     vectors related to the implementation of Component,     KeyboardFocusManager, and DefaultKeyboardFocusManager.     (Bug #6664512)

  - An unspecified vulnerability in TrueType font parsing     functionality may lead to a denial of service. (Bug     #6815780)

  - The failure to clone arrays returned by the     getConfigurations function could lead to multiple,     unspecified vulnerabilities in the X11 and     Win32GraphicsDevice subsystems. (Bug #6822057)

  - The TimeZone.getTimeZone method can be used by a remote     attacker to determine the existence of local files via     its handling of zoneinfo (aka tz) files. (Bug #6824265)

  - Java Web Start does not properly handle the interaction     between a signed JAR file and a JNLP application or     applet. (Bug #6870531)
