Synopsis
IBM Java is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.Description
The version of IBM Java installed on the remote host is prior to 7.1 < 7.1.5.22 / 8.0 < 8.0.8.25. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the IBM Security Update May 2024 advisory.- The IBM SDK, Java Technology Edition's Object Request Broker (ORB) 7.1.0.0 through 7.1.5.21 and 8.0.0.0 through 8.0.8.21 is vulnerable to a denial of service attack in some circumstances due to improper enforcement of the JEP 290 MaxRef and MaxDepth deserialization filters. IBM X-Force ID: 260578.
(CVE-2023-38264)
- In Eclipse OpenJ9 release versions prior to 0.44.0 and after 0.13.0, when running with JVM option
-Xgc:concurrentScavenge, the sequence generated for System.arrayCopy on the IBM Z platform with hardware and software support for guarded storage [1], could allow access to a buffer with an incorrect length value when executing an arraycopy sequence while the Concurrent Scavenge Garbage Collection cycle is active and the source and destination memory regions for arraycopy overlap. This allows read and write to addresses beyond the end of the array range. (CVE-2024-3933)
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
