Oracle Linux 6 : java-1.8.0-openjdk (ELSA-2016-0514)

high Nessus Plugin ID 90177

Synopsis

The remote Oracle Linux host is missing a security update.

Description

The remote Oracle Linux 6 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ELSA-2016-0514 advisory.

[1:1.8.0.77-0.b03]
- Remove what remains of the SunEC sources in the remove-intree-libraries script.
- Resolves: rhbz#1320661

[1:1.8.0.77-0.b03]
- Update to u77b03.
- Drop 8146566 which is applied upstream.
- Replace s390 Java options patch with general version from IcedTea.
- Apply s390 patches unconditionally to avoid arch-specific patch failures.
- Remove fragment of s390 size_t patch that unnecessarily removes a cast, breaking ppc64le.
- Remove aarch64-specific suffix as update/build version are now the same as for other archs.
- Only use z format specifier on s390, not s390x.
- Adjust tarball generation script to allow ecc_impl.h to be included.
- Correct spelling mistakes in tarball generation script.
- Synchronise minor changes from Fedora.
- Use a simple backport for PR2462/8074839.
- Don't backport the crc check for pack.gz. It's not tested well upstream.
- Resolves: rhbz#1320661
