Updated java-1.7.0-oracle packages that fix several security issues are now available for Oracle Java for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 and 6.

The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having Critical security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base scores, which give detailed severity ratings, are available for each vulnerability from the CVE links in the References section.

[Updated 12th May 2014] The package list in this erratum has been updated to make the packages available in the Oracle Java for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 Workstation x86_64 channels on the Red Hat Network.

Oracle Java SE version 7 includes the Oracle Java Runtime Environment and the Oracle Java Software Development Kit.

This update fixes several vulnerabilities in the Oracle Java Runtime Environment and the Oracle Java Software Development Kit. Further information about these flaws can be found on the Oracle Java SE Critical Patch Update Advisory page, listed in the References section.
(CVE-2013-6629, CVE-2013-6954, CVE-2014-0429, CVE-2014-0432, CVE-2014-0446, CVE-2014-0448, CVE-2014-0449, CVE-2014-0451, CVE-2014-0452, CVE-2014-0453, CVE-2014-0454, CVE-2014-0455, CVE-2014-0456, CVE-2014-0457, CVE-2014-0458, CVE-2014-0459, CVE-2014-0460, CVE-2014-0461, CVE-2014-1876, CVE-2014-2397, CVE-2014-2398, CVE-2014-2401, CVE-2014-2402, CVE-2014-2403, CVE-2014-2409, CVE-2014-2412, CVE-2014-2413, CVE-2014-2414, CVE-2014-2420, CVE-2014-2421, CVE-2014-2422, CVE-2014-2423, CVE-2014-2427, CVE-2014-2428)

All users of java-1.7.0-oracle are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which provide Oracle Java 7 Update 55 and resolve these issues. All running instances of Oracle Java must be restarted for the update to take effect.

The VMware vCenter Server installed on the remote host is version 5.0 prior to Update 3c, 5.1 prior to Update 3, or 5.5 prior to Update 2.
It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities in third party libraries :

  - The bundled version of Apache Struts contains a code     execution flaw. Note that 5.0 Update 3c only addresses     this vulnerability. (CVE-2014-0114)

  - The bundled tc-server / Apache Tomcat contains multiple     vulnerabilities. (CVE-2013-4590, CVE-2013-4322, and     CVE-2014-0050)

  - The bundled version of Oracle JRE is prior to 1.7.0_55     and thus is affected by multiple vulnerabilities. Note     that this only affects version 5.5 of vCenter.

The version of VMware vCenter Update Manager installed on the remote Windows host is 5.5 prior to Update 2. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities related to the bundled version of Oracle JRE prior to 1.7.0_55.

Updated java-1.7.0-openjdk packages that fix various security issues are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.
