| Description: | Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'java-1.6.0-openjdk'
package(s) announced via the referenced advisory.
Vulnerability Insight:
These packages provide the OpenJDK 6 Java Runtime Environment and the
OpenJDK 6 Software Development Kit.
A flaw was found in the Java RMI (Remote Method Invocation) registry
implementation. A remote RMI client could use this flaw to execute
arbitrary code on the RMI server running the registry. (CVE-2011-3556)
A flaw was found in the Java RMI registry implementation. A remote RMI
client could use this flaw to execute code on the RMI server with
unrestricted privileges. (CVE-2011-3557)
A flaw was found in the IIOP (Internet Inter-Orb Protocol) deserialization
code. An untrusted Java application or applet running in a sandbox could
use this flaw to bypass sandbox restrictions by deserializing
specially-crafted input. (CVE-2011-3521)
It was found that the Java ScriptingEngine did not properly restrict the
privileges of sandboxed applications. An untrusted Java application or
applet running in a sandbox could use this flaw to bypass sandbox
restrictions. (CVE-2011-3544)
A flaw was found in the AWTKeyStroke implementation. An untrusted Java
application or applet running in a sandbox could use this flaw to bypass
sandbox restrictions. (CVE-2011-3548)
An integer overflow flaw, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow, was
found in the Java2D code used to perform transformations of graphic shapes
and images. An untrusted Java application or applet running in a sandbox
could use this flaw to bypass sandbox restrictions. (CVE-2011-3551)
An insufficient error checking flaw was found in the unpacker for JAR files
in pack200 format. A specially-crafted JAR file could use this flaw to
crash the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) or, possibly, execute arbitrary code
with JVM privileges. (CVE-2011-3554)
It was found that HttpsURLConnection did not perform SecurityManager checks
in the setSSLSocketFactory method. An untrusted Java application or applet
running in a sandbox could use this flaw to bypass connection restrictions
defined in the policy. (CVE-2011-3560)
A flaw was found in the way the SSL 3 and TLS 1.0 protocols used block
ciphers in cipher-block chaining (CBC) mode. An attacker able to perform a
chosen plain text attack against a connection mixing trusted and untrusted
data could use this flaw to recover portions of the trusted data sent over
the connection. (CVE-2011-3389)
Note: This update mitigates the CVE-2011-3389 issue by splitting the first
application data record byte to a separate SSL/TLS protocol record. This
mitigation may cause compatibility issues wi ...
