Oracle Business Intelligence Publisher Multiple Vulnerabilities (April 2018 CPU)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 119939

Synopsis

The remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The version of Oracle Business Intelligence Publisher running on the remote host is 11.1.1.7.x prior to 11.1.1.7.180417 or 11.1.1.9.x prior to 11.1.1.9.180417, similarly, versions 12.2.1.2.x prior to 12.2.1.2.180116 and 12.2.1.3.x prior to 12.2.1.3.180116 are affected as noted in the April 2018 Critical Patch Update advisory. The Oracle Business Intelligence Publisher installed on the remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

- A vulnerability can be exploited by a remote attacker by sending a crafted serialized Java object. A successful attack would allow the attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the vulnerable server (CVE-2015-7501).

- A vulnerability exists on Apache Batik before 1.9. The vulnerability would allow an attacker to send a malicious SVG file to a user. An attacker who successfully exploits this vulnerability could result in the compromise of the server (CVE-2017-5662).

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

Solution

Apply the appropriate patch according to the April 2018 Oracle Critical Patch Update advisory.
