The remote host is missing an update for the 'openjdk-8' package(s) announced via the USN-3366-1 advisory.
Vulnerability Insight:
It was discovered that the JPEGImageReader class in OpenJDK would
incorrectly read unused image data. An attacker could use this to
specially construct a jpeg image file that when opened by a Java
application would cause a denial of service. (CVE-2017-10053)
It was discovered that the JAR verifier in OpenJDK did not properly
handle archives containing files missing digests. An attacker could
use this to modify the signed contents of a JAR file. (CVE-2017-10067)
It was discovered that integer overflows existed in the Hotspot
component of OpenJDK when generating range check loop predicates. An
attacker could use this to specially construct an untrusted Java
application or applet that could escape sandbox restrictions
and cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary
code. (CVE-2017-10074)
It was discovered that the JavaScript Scripting component of OpenJDK
incorrectly allowed access to Java APIs. An attacker could use this
to specially craft JavaScript code to bypass access restrictions.
(CVE-2017-10078)
It was discovered that OpenJDK did not properly process parentheses
in function signatures. An attacker could use this to specially
construct an untrusted Java application or applet that could escape
sandbox restrictions. (CVE-2017-10081)
It was discovered that the ThreadPoolExecutor class in OpenJDK did not
properly perform access control checks when cleaning up threads. An
attacker could use this to specially construct an untrusted Java
application or applet that could escape sandbox restrictions and
possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-10087)
It was discovered that the ServiceRegistry implementation
in OpenJDK did not perform access control checks in certain
situations. An attacker could use this to specially construct
an untrusted Java application or applet that escaped sandbox
restrictions. (CVE-2017-10089)
It was discovered that the channel groups implementation in
OpenJDK did not properly perform access control checks in some
situations. An attacker could use this to specially construct an
untrusted Java application or applet that could escape sandbox
restrictions. (CVE-2017-10090)
It was discovered that the DTM exception handling code in the
JAXP component of OpenJDK did not properly perform access control
checks. An attacker could use this to specially construct an untrusted
Java application or applet that could escape sandbox restrictions.
(CVE-2017-10096)
It was discovered that the JAXP component of OpenJDK incorrectly
granted access to some internal resolvers. An attacker could use this
to specially construct an untrusted Java application or applet that
could escape sandbox restrictions. (CVE-2017-10101)
It was discovered that the Distributed Garbage Collector (DGC) in
OpenJDK did not properly track references in some situations. A
remote attacker could possibly use this to execute arbitrary
code. (CVE-2017-10102)
