Unspecified vulnerability in Oracle Java 7 before Update 11 allows remote attackers to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability via unknown vectors, a different vulnerability than CVE-2013-0422. NOTE: some parties have mapped CVE-2012-3174 to an issue involving recursive use of the Reflection API, but that issue is already covered as part of CVE-2013-0422. This identifier is for a different vulnerability whose details are not public as of 20130114.

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201401-30 (Oracle JRE/JDK: Multiple vulnerabilities)

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

    An unauthenticated, remote attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities       to execute arbitrary code.
      Furthermore, a local or remote attacker could exploit these       vulnerabilities to cause unspecified impact, possibly including remote       execution of arbitrary code.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

Two improper permission check issues were discovered in the reflection API in OpenJDK. An untrusted Java application or applet could use these flaws to bypass Java sandbox restrictions.

Updated java-1.7.0-openjdk packages fix security vulnerabilities :

Two improper permission check issues were discovered in the reflection API in OpenJDK. An untrusted Java application or applet could use these flaws to bypass Java sandbox restrictions (CVE-2012-3174, CVE-2013-0422).

Multiple improper permission check issues were discovered in the AWT, CORBA, JMX, Libraries, and Beans components in OpenJDK. An untrusted Java application or applet could use these flaws to bypass Java sandbox restrictions (CVE-2013-0442, CVE-2013-0445, CVE-2013-0441, CVE-2013-1475, CVE-2013-1476, CVE-2013-0429, CVE-2013-0450, CVE-2013-0425, CVE-2013-0426, CVE-2013-0428, CVE-2013-0444).

Multiple flaws were found in the way image parsers in the 2D and AWT components handled image raster parameters. A specially crafted image could cause Java Virtual Machine memory corruption and, possibly, lead to arbitrary code execution with the virtual machine privileges (CVE-2013-1478, CVE-2013-1480).

A flaw was found in the AWT component's clipboard handling code. An untrusted Java application or applet could use this flaw to access clipboard data, bypassing Java sandbox restrictions (CVE-2013-0432).

The default Java security properties configuration did not restrict access to certain com.sun.xml.internal packages. An untrusted Java application or applet could use this flaw to access information, bypassing certain Java sandbox restrictions. This update lists the whole package as restricted (CVE-2013-0435).

Multiple improper permission check issues were discovered in the JMX, Libraries, Networking, and JAXP components. An untrusted Java application or applet could use these flaws to bypass certain Java sandbox restrictions (CVE-2013-0431, CVE-2013-0427, CVE-2013-0433, CVE-2013-0434).

It was discovered that the RMI component's CGIHandler class used user inputs in error messages without any sanitization. An attacker could use this flaw to perform a cross-site scripting (XSS) attack (CVE-2013-0424).

It was discovered that the SSL/TLS implementation in the JSSE component did not properly enforce handshake message ordering, allowing an unlimited number of handshake restarts. A remote attacker could use this flaw to make an SSL/TLS server using JSSE consume an excessive amount of CPU by continuously restarting the handshake (CVE-2013-0440).

It was discovered that the JSSE component did not properly validate Diffie-Hellman public keys. An SSL/TLS client could possibly use this flaw to perform a small subgroup attack (CVE-2013-0443).

Multiple improper permission check issues were discovered in the JMX and Libraries components in OpenJDK. An untrusted Java application or applet could use these flaws to bypass Java sandbox restrictions (CVE-2013-1486, CVE-2013-1484).

An improper permission check issue was discovered in the Libraries component in OpenJDK. An untrusted Java application or applet could use this flaw to bypass certain Java sandbox restrictions (CVE-2013-1485).

It was discovered that OpenJDK leaked timing information when decrypting TLS/SSL protocol encrypted records when CBC-mode cipher suites were used. A remote attacker could possibly use this flaw to retrieve plain text from the encrypted packets by using a TLS/SSL server as a padding oracle (CVE-2013-0169).

An integer overflow flaw was found in the way the 2D component handled certain sample model instances. A specially crafted sample model instance could cause Java Virtual Machine memory corruption and, possibly, lead to arbitrary code execution with virtual machine privileges (CVE-2013-0809).

It was discovered that the 2D component did not properly reject certain malformed images. Specially crafted raster parameters could cause Java Virtual Machine memory corruption and, possibly, lead to arbitrary code execution with virtual machine privileges (CVE-2013-1493).

IBM Java 7 was updated to SR4, fixing various critical security issues and bugs.

IBM Java SE version 7 includes the IBM Java Runtime Environment and the IBM Java Software Development Kit.

This update fixes several vulnerabilities in the IBM Java Runtime Environment and the IBM Java Software Development Kit. Detailed vulnerability descriptions are linked from the IBM Security alerts page, listed in the References section. (CVE-2012-1541, CVE-2012-3174, CVE-2012-3213, CVE-2012-3342, CVE-2013-0351, CVE-2013-0409, CVE-2013-0419, CVE-2013-0422, CVE-2013-0423, CVE-2013-0424, CVE-2013-0425, CVE-2013-0426, CVE-2013-0427, CVE-2013-0428, CVE-2013-0431, CVE-2013-0432, CVE-2013-0433, CVE-2013-0434, CVE-2013-0435, CVE-2013-0437, CVE-2013-0438, CVE-2013-0440, CVE-2013-0441, CVE-2013-0442, CVE-2013-0443, CVE-2013-0444, CVE-2013-0445, CVE-2013-0446, CVE-2013-0449, CVE-2013-0450, CVE-2013-0809, CVE-2013-1473, CVE-2013-1476, CVE-2013-1478, CVE-2013-1480, CVE-2013-1484, CVE-2013-1485, CVE-2013-1486, CVE-2013-1487, CVE-2013-1493)

All users of java-1.7.0-ibm are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, containing the IBM Java SE 7 SR4 release. All running instances of IBM Java must be restarted for the update to take effect.

The version of Oracle (formerly Sun) Java SE or Java for Business installed on the remote host is earlier than 7 Update 11 and is, therefore, potentially affected by the following security issues :

  - An unspecified issue exists in the Libraries     component. (CVE-2012-3174)

  - An error exists in the 'MBeanInstantiator.findClass'     method that could allow remote, arbitrary code execution.
    (CVE-2013-0422)

Note that, according the advisory, these issues apply to client deployments of Java only and can only be exploited through untrusted 'Java Web Start' applications and untrusted Java applets.

It was discovered that OpenJDK 7's security mechanism could be bypassed via Java applets. If a user were tricked into opening a malicious website, a remote attacker could exploit this to perform arbitrary code execution as the user invoking the program.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Two improper permission check issues were discovered in the reflection API in OpenJDK. An untrusted Java application or applet could use these flaws to bypass Java sandbox restrictions. (CVE-2012-3174, CVE-2013-0422)

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

This update fixes rhbz#895035 , which consists of a set of flaws that potentially allow arbitrary code execution (including remotely via applets).

It is strongly recommended that all Java users in Fedora immediately update to this release.
