RHEL 8 : java-17-openjdk (RHSA-2023:5751)

low Nessus Plugin ID 183340

Synopsis

The remote Red Hat host is missing one or more security updates for java-17-openjdk.

Description

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2023:5751 advisory.

The java-17-openjdk packages provide the OpenJDK 17 Java Runtime Environment and the OpenJDK 17 Java Software Development Kit.

Security Fix(es):

* OpenJDK: memory corruption issue on x86_64 with AVX-512 (8317121) (CVE-2023-22025)

* OpenJDK: certificate path validation issue during client authentication (8309966) (CVE-2023-22081)

For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.

Bug Fix(es):

* Additional validity checks in the handling of Zip64 files, JDK-8302483, were introduced in the 17.0.8 release of OpenJDK, causing the use of some valid zip files to now fail with an error. This release, 17.0.9, allows for zero-length headers and additional padding produced by some Zip64 creation tools. With both releases, the checks can be disabled using -Djdk.util.zip.disableZip64ExtraFieldValidation=true.
(RHBZ#2237178)

* The /usr/bin/jfr alternative is now owned by the java-17-openjdk package (RHEL-13708)

* The jcmd tool is now provided by the java-17-openjdk-headless package, rather than java-17-openjdk- devel, to make it more accessible (RHEL-13658)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Red Hat Enterprise Linux security advisory.

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

Solution

Update the RHEL java-17-openjdk package based on the guidance in RHSA-2023:5751.
