The version of Oracle (formerly Sun) Java SE or Java for Business installed on the remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the April 2022 CPU advisory:

  - Vulnerability in the Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition product of Oracle Java SE (component:
    Libraries). Supported versions that are affected are Oracle Java SE: 17.0.2 and 18; Oracle GraalVM     Enterprise Edition: 20.3.5, 21.3.1 and 22.0.0.2. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows     unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM     Enterprise Edition. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized creation, deletion or     modification access to critical data or all Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition accessible data. Note:
    This vulnerability applies to Java deployments, typically in clients running sandboxed Java Web Start     applications or sandboxed Java applets, 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. (CVE-2022-21449)

  - Vulnerability in the Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition product of Oracle Java SE (component:
    Libraries). Supported versions that are affected are Oracle Java SE: 7u331, 8u321, 11.0.14, 17.0.2, 18;
    Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition: 20.3.5, 21.3.1 and 22.0.0.2. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows     unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM     Enterprise Edition. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized access to critical data or     complete access to all Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition accessible data. Note: This     vulnerability applies to Java deployments, typically in clients running sandboxed Java Web Start applications or sandboxed     Java applets, 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. (CVE-2022-21476)

  - Vulnerability in the Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition product of Oracle Java SE (component:
    JAXP). Supported versions that are affected are Oracle Java SE: 7u331, 8u321, 11.0.14, 17.0.2, 18; Oracle     GraalVM Enterprise Edition: 20.3.5, 21.3.1 and 22.0.0.2. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated     attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM Enterprise     Edition. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized ability to cause a partial denial     of service (partial DOS) of Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition. Note: This vulnerability applies     to Java deployments, typically in clients running sandboxed Java Web Start applications or sandboxed Java     applets, 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. (CVE-2022-21426)
