Vulnerability in the Java SE component of Oracle Java SE (subcomponent: Security). The supported version that is affected is Java SE: 10.0.1. Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Java SE. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized access to critical data or complete access to all Java SE accessible data. Note: Applies to client and server deployment of Java. This vulnerability can be exploited through sandboxed Java Web Start applications and sandboxed Java applets. It can also be exploited by supplying data to APIs in the specified Component without using sandboxed Java Web Start applications or sandboxed Java applets, such as through a web service. CVSS 3.0 Base Score 5.9 (Confidentiality impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N).

An update of the openjdk11 package has been released.

The version of Oracle (formerly Sun) Java SE or Java for Business installed on the remote host is prior to 10 Update 2, 8 Update 181, 7 Update 191, or 6 Update 201. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities related to the following components :

 - Concurrency. A difficult to exploit vulnerability allows an unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Java SE (CVE-2018-2952)

 - Deployment. A difficult to exploit vulnerability allows an unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Java SE (CVE-2018-2964)

 - JSSE. A difficult to exploit vulnerability allows an unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Java SE (CVE-2018-2973)

 - Java DB. A difficult to exploit vulnerability allows an unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Java SE. (CVE-2018-2938)

 - JavaFX. A difficult to exploit vulnerability allows an unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Java SE. (CVE-2018-2941)

 - Libraries. An easily exploitable vulnerability allows an unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Java SE. (CVE-2018-2940)

 - Security. A difficult to exploit vulnerability allows an unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Java SE (CVE-2018-2972)

 - Windows DLL. A difficult to exploit vulnerability allows an unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Java SE (CVE-2018-2942)

This java-11-openjdk update to version jdk-11+24 fixes the following issues :

Security issues fixed :

  - CVE-2018-2940: Fix unspecified vulnerability in     subcomponent Libraries (bsc#1101645).

  - CVE-2018-2952: Fix unspecified vulnerability in     subcomponent Concurrency (bsc#1101651).

  - CVE-2018-2972: Fix unspecified vulnerability in     subcomponent Security (bsc#1101655).

  - CVE-2018-2973: Fix unspecified vulnerability in     subcomponent JSSE (bsc#1101656).

This update for OpenJDK 10.0.2 fixes the following security issues :

  - CVE-2018-2940: the libraries sub-component contained an     easily exploitable vulnerability that allowed attackers     to compromise Java SE or Java SE Embedded over the     network, potentially gaining unauthorized read access to     data that's accessible to the server. [bsc#1101645]

  - CVE-2018-2952: the concurrency sub-component contained a     difficult to exploit vulnerability that allowed     attackers to compromise Java SE, Java SE Embedded, or     JRockit over the network. This issue could have been     abused to mount a partial denial-of-service attack on     the server. [bsc#1101651]

  - CVE-2018-2972: the security sub-component contained a     difficult to exploit vulnerability that allowed     attackers to compromise Java SE over the network,     potentially gaining unauthorized access to critical data     or complete access to all Java SE accessible data.
    [bsc#1101655)

  - CVE-2018-2973: the JSSE sub-component contained a     difficult to exploit vulnerability allowed attackers to     compromise Java SE or Java SE Embedded over the network,     potentially gaining the ability to create, delete or     modify critical data or all Java SE, Java SE Embedded     accessible data without authorization. [bsc#1101656]

Furthemore, the following bugs were fixed :

  - Properly remove the existing alternative for java before     reinstalling it. [bsc#1096420]

  - idlj was moved to the *-devel package. [bsc#1096420]

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

The remote Ubuntu 18.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-3747-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that OpenJDK did not properly validate types in some situations. An attacker could use     this to construct a Java class that could possibly bypass sandbox restrictions. (CVE-2018-2825,     CVE-2018-2826)

    It was discovered that the PatternSyntaxException class in OpenJDK did not properly validate arguments     passed to it. An attacker could use this to potentially construct a class that caused a denial of service     (excessive memory consumption). (CVE-2018-2952)

    Daniel Bleichenbacher discovered a vulnerability in the Galois/Counter Mode (GCM) mode of operation for     symmetric block ciphers in OpenJDK. An attacker could use this to expose sensitive information.
    (CVE-2018-2972)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The version of Oracle JRockit installed on the remote Windows host is R28.3.18. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities.
