It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2023-2023-168 advisory.

    Vulnerability in the Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition product of Oracle Java SE     (component: JSSE).  Supported versions that are affected are Oracle Java SE: 8u361, 8u361-perf, 11.0.18,     17.0.6, 20; Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition: 20.3.9, 21.3.5 and  22.3.1. Difficult to exploit     vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via TLS 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 as well as  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. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 7.4 (Confidentiality and     Integrity impacts).  CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N). (CVE-2023-21930)
