Synopsis
The remote SUSE host is missing one or more security updates.
Description
This update for java-1_8_0-ibm fixes the following issues :
Update to Java 8.0 Service Refresh 6 Fix Pack 25 [bsc#1182186, bsc#1181239, CVE-2020-27221, CVE-2020-14803]

- CVE-2020-14803: Unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple protocols allows to compromise Java SE.
Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
