Oracle Linux 8 : java-17-openjdk (ELSA-2022-5726)

high Nessus Plugin ID 163474

Synopsis

The remote Oracle Linux host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The remote Oracle Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ELSA-2022-5726 advisory.

[1:17.0.4.0.8-0.2.ea]
- Add rpminspect.yaml to turn off Java bytecode inspections
- java-17-openjdk deliberately produces Java 17 bytecode, not the default Java 11 bytecode
- Resolves: rhbz#2109106

[1:17.0.4.0.8-0.2.ea]
- Revert the following changes until copy-java-configs has adapted to relative symlinks:
- * Move cacerts replacement to install section and retain original of this and tzdb.dat
- * Run tests on the installed image, rather than the build image
- * Introduce variables to refer to the static library installation directories
- * Use relative symlinks so they work within the image
- * Run debug symbols check during build stage, before the install strips them
- The move of turning on system security properties is retained so we don't ship with them off
- Related: rhbz#2084650

[1:17.0.4.0.8-0.2.ea]
- Returned absolute symlinks
- Relative symlinks are breaking cjc, and deeper investigations are necessary
-- why cjc intentionally skips relative symllinks
- Images have to be workarounded differently
- Related: rhbz#2084650

[1:17.0.4.0.8-1]
- Update to jdk-17.0.4.0+8
- Update release notes to 17.0.4.0+8
- Need to include the '.S' suffix in debuginfo checks after JDK-8284661
- Print release file during build, which should now include a correct SOURCE value from .src-rev
- Update tarball script with IcedTea GitHub URL and .src-rev generation
- Include script to generate bug list for release notes
- Update tzdata requirement to 2022a to match JDK-8283350
- Move EA designator check to prep so failures can be caught earlier
- Make EA designator check non-fatal while upstream is not maintaining it
- Explicitly require crypto-policies during build and runtime for system security properties
- Make use of the vendor version string to store our version & release rather than an upstream release date
- Include a test in the RPM to check the build has the correct vendor information.
- Rebase FIPS patches from fips-17u branch and simplify by using a single patch from that repository
- * RH2094027: SunEC runtime permission for FIPS
- * RH2036462: sun.security.pkcs11.wrapper.PKCS11.getInstance breakage
- * RH2090378: Revert to disabling system security properties and FIPS mode support together
- Rebase RH1648249 nss.cfg patch so it applies after the FIPS patch
- Enable system security properties in the RPM (now disabled by default in the FIPS repo)
- Improve security properties test to check both enabled and disabled behaviour
- Run security properties test with property debugging on
- Turn on system security properties as part of the build's install section
- Move cacerts replacement to install section and retain original of this and tzdb.dat
- Run tests on the installed image, rather than the build image
- Introduce variables to refer to the static library installation directories
- Use relative symlinks so they work within the image
- Run debug symbols check during build stage, before the install strips them
- Resolves: rhbz#2084650
- Resolves: rhbz#2099913
- Resolves: rhbz#2108206
- Resolves: rhbz#2108209
- Resolves: rhbz#2106521

[1:17.0.4.0.1-0.2.ea]
- Fix issue where CheckVendor.java test erroneously passes when it should fail.
- Add proper quoting so '&' is not treated as a special character by the shell.
- Related: rhbz#2084650
