critical Nessus Plugin ID 65089

Language:

Synopsis

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

Description

An integer overflow flaw was found in the way the 2D component handled certain sample model instances. A specially crafted sample model instance could cause Java Virtual Machine memory corruption and, possibly, lead to arbitrary code execution with virtual machine privileges. (CVE-2013-0809)

It was discovered that the 2D component did not properly reject certain malformed images. Specially crafted raster parameters could cause Java Virtual Machine memory corruption and, possibly, lead to arbitrary code execution with virtual machine privileges.
(CVE-2013-1493)

Note: If the web browser plug-in provided by the icedtea-web package was installed, the issues exposed via Java applets could have been exploited without user interaction if a user visited a malicious website.

This erratum also upgrades the OpenJDK package to IcedTea7 2.3.8.

All running instances of OpenJDK Java must be restarted for the update to take effect.

Solution

Update the affected packages.
