Multiple binaries in IBM SDK, Java Technology Edition 7, 7R, and 8 on the AIX platform use insecure absolute RPATHs, which may facilitate code injection and privilege elevation by local users. IBM X-Force ID: 163984.

The version of IBM Java installed on the remote host is prior to 7.0 < 7.0.10.50 / 7.1 < 7.1.4.50 / 8.0 < 8.0.5.40. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the IBM Security Update July 2019 advisory.

  - Multiple binaries in IBM SDK, Java Technology Edition 7, 7R, and 8 on the AIX platform use insecure     absolute RPATHs, which may facilitate code injection and privilege elevation by local users. IBM X-Force     ID: 163984. (CVE-2019-4473)

  - AIX builds of Eclipse OpenJ9 before 0.15.0 contain unused RPATHs which may facilitate code injection and     privilege elevation by local users. (CVE-2019-11771)

  - In Eclipse OpenJ9 prior to 0.15, the String.getBytes(int, int, byte[], int) method does not verify that     the provided byte array is non-null nor that the provided index is in bounds when compiled by the JIT.
    This allows arbitrary writes to any 32-bit address or beyond the end of a byte array within Java code run     under a SecurityManager. (CVE-2019-11772)

  - All builds of Eclipse OpenJ9 prior to 0.15 contain a bug where the loop versioner may fail to privatize a     value that is pulled out of the loop by versioning - for example if there is a condition that is moved out     of the loop that reads a field we may not privatize the value of that field in the modified copy of the     loop allowing the test to see one value of the field and subsequently the loop to see a modified field     value without retesting the condition moved out of the loop. This can lead to a variety of different     issues but read out of array bounds is one major consequence of these problems. (CVE-2019-11775)

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

The remote SUSE Linux SLES11 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2019:14160-1 advisory.

  - AIX builds of Eclipse OpenJ9 before 0.15.0 contain unused RPATHs which may facilitate code injection and     privilege elevation by local users. (CVE-2019-11771)

  - Vulnerability in the Java SE, Java SE Embedded component of Oracle Java SE (subcomponent: Utilities).
    Supported versions that are affected are Java SE: 7u221, 8u212, 11.0.3 and 12.0.1; Java SE Embedded:
    8u211. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple     protocols to compromise Java SE, Java SE Embedded. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in     unauthorized ability to cause a partial denial of service (partial DOS) of Java SE, Java SE Embedded.
    Note: This vulnerability applies to Java deployments, typically in clients running sandboxed Java Web     Start applications or sandboxed Java applets (in Java SE 8), that load and run untrusted code (e.g., code     that comes from the internet) and rely on the Java sandbox for security. This vulnerability can also be     exploited by using APIs in the specified Component, e.g., through a web service which supplies data to the     APIs. CVSS 3.0 Base Score 5.3 (Availability impacts). CVSS Vector:
    (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L). (CVE-2019-2762, CVE-2019-2769)

  - Vulnerability in the Java SE, Java SE Embedded component of Oracle Java SE (subcomponent: Networking).
    Supported versions that are affected are Java SE: 7u221, 8u212, 11.0.3 and 12.0.1; Java SE Embedded:
    8u211. Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple     protocols to compromise Java SE, Java SE Embedded. Successful attacks require human interaction from a     person other than the attacker. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized read     access to a subset of Java SE, Java SE Embedded accessible data. Note: This vulnerability applies to Java     deployments, typically in clients running sandboxed Java Web Start applications or sandboxed Java applets     (in Java SE 8), that load and run untrusted code (e.g., code that comes from the internet) and rely on the     Java sandbox for security. This vulnerability can also be exploited by using APIs in the specified     Component, e.g., through a web service which supplies data to the APIs. CVSS 3.0 Base Score 3.1     (Confidentiality impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N). (CVE-2019-2766)

  - Vulnerability in the Java SE, Java SE Embedded component of Oracle Java SE (subcomponent: Networking).
    Supported versions that are affected are Java SE: 7u221, 8u212, 11.0.3 and 12.0.1; Java SE Embedded:
    8u211. Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple     protocols to compromise Java SE, Java SE Embedded. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in     unauthorized update, insert or delete access to some of Java SE, Java SE Embedded accessible data as well     as unauthorized read access to a subset of Java SE, Java SE Embedded accessible data. Note: This     vulnerability applies to Java deployments, typically in clients running sandboxed Java Web Start     applications or sandboxed Java applets (in Java SE 8), that load and run untrusted code (e.g., code that     comes from the internet) and rely on the Java sandbox for security. This vulnerability can also be     exploited by using APIs in the specified Component, e.g., through a web service which supplies data to the     APIs. CVSS 3.0 Base Score 4.8 (Confidentiality and Integrity impacts). CVSS Vector:
    (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N). (CVE-2019-2816)

  - Multiple binaries in IBM SDK, Java Technology Edition 7, 7R, and 8 on the AIX platform use insecure     absolute RPATHs, which may facilitate code injection and privilege elevation by local users. IBM X-Force     ID: 163984. (CVE-2019-4473)

  - png_image_free in png.c in libpng 1.6.x before 1.6.37 has a use-after-free because png_image_free_function     is called under png_safe_execute. (CVE-2019-7317)
