Description
This security bulletin contains information about 14 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2016-2183)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to decrypt transmitted data.
The vulnerability exists due to remote user's ability to control the network and capture long duration 3DES CBC mode encrypted session during which he can see a part of the text. In case of repeated sending the attacker can read the part and reconstruct the whole text.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to decode transmitted data. This vulnerability is known as SWEET32.
2) Modification of information (CVE-ID: CVE-2016-5546)
The vulnerability allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to modify information.The weakness exists due to unknown error in Oracle Java SE Java SE Embedded and Jrockit related to the Libraries component. A remote attacker can modify arbitrary data on the system.
3) Denial of service (CVE-ID: CVE-2016-5547)
The vulnerability allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.The weakness exists due to unknown error in Oracle Java SE Java SE Embedded and Jrockit related to the Libraries component. A remote attacker can cause the application to crash.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability results in denial of service.
4) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2016-5548)
The vulnerability allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to obtain potentially sensitive information.The weakness exists due to unknown error in Oracle Java SE and Java SE Embedded related to the Libraries component. A remote attacker can trick the victim into visiting a specially crafted webpage and read important files on the target system.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability results in information disclosure.
5) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2016-5549)
The vulnerability allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to obtain potentially sensitive information.The weakness exists due to unknown error in Oracle Java SE and Java SE Embedded related to the Libraries component. A remote attacker can trick the victim into visiting a specially crafted webpage and read important files on the target system.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability results in information disclosure.
6) Modification of information (CVE-ID: CVE-2016-5552)
The vulnerability allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to modify information.The weakness exists due to unknown error in Oracle Java SE Java SE Embedded and Jrockit related to the Networking component. A remote attacker can modify arbitrary data on the system.
7) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-3231)
The vulnerability allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to obtain potentially sensitive information.The weakness exists due to unknown error in Oracle Java SE and Java SE Embedded related to the Networking component. A remote attacker can trick the victim into visiting a specially crafted webpage read arbitrary files on the target system.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability results in information disclosure.
8) Remote code execution (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-3241)
The vulnerability allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code.The weakness exists due to unknown error in Oracle Java SE Java SE Embedded and Jrockit related to the RMI component. A remote attacker can execute arbitrary code with privileges of the current user and compromise vulnerable system.
9) Modification of information (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-3252)
The vulnerability allows a remote authenticated attacker to modify information.The weakness exists due to unknown error in Oracle Java SE Java SE Embedded and Jrockit related to the JAAS component. A remote attacker can trick the victim into visiting a specially crafted webpage and modify arbitrary data on the system.
10) Denial of service (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-3253)
The vulnerability allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.The weakness exists due to unknown error in Oracle Java SE Java SE Embedded and Jrockit related to the 2D component. A remote attacker can cause the system to crash.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability results in denial of service.
11) Remote code execution (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-3260)
The vulnerability allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code.The weakness exists due to unknown error in Oracle Java SE related to the AWT component. A remote attacker can trick the victim into visiting a specially crafted webpage, execute arbitrary code with privileges of the current user and compromise vulnerable system.
12) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-3261)
The vulnerability allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to obtain potentially sensitive information.The weakness exists due to unknown error in Oracle Java SE and Java SE Embedded related to the Networking component.
