Oracle Java SE Multiple Vulnerabilities (April 2017 CPU) (Unix)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 99589

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Unix host contains a programming platform that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The version of Oracle (formerly Sun) Java SE or Java for Business installed on the remote host is prior to 6 Update 151, 7 Update 141, or 8 Update 131. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

 - An unspecified flaw exists in the Networking subcomponent that allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to impact confidentiality and integrity.
 (CVE-2017-3509)

 - An unspecified flaw exists in the JCE subcomponent that allows a local attacker to gain elevated privileges.
 This vulnerability does not affect Java SE version 6.
 (CVE-2017-3511)

 - An unspecified flaw exists in the AWT subcomponent that allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute arbitrary code. This vulnerability does not affect Java SE version 6. (CVE-2017-3512)

 - An unspecified flaw exists in the AWT subcomponent that allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-3514)

 - An unspecified flaw exists in the JAXP subcomponent that allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause a denial of service condition. (CVE-2017-3526)

 - Multiple unspecified flaws exist in the Networking subcomponent that allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to gain update, insert, or delete access to unauthorized data. (CVE-2017-3533, CVE-2017-3544)

 - An unspecified flaw exists in the Security subcomponent that allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to gain update, insert, or delete access to unauthorized data.
 (CVE-2017-3539)

Solution

Upgrade to Oracle JDK / JRE 6 Update 151 / 7 Update 141 / 8 Update 131 or later. If necessary, remove any affected versions.

Note that an Extended Support contract with Oracle is needed to obtain JDK / JRE 6 Update 95 or later.
