Vulnerability in Oracle Java SE (component: 2D). Supported versions that are affected are Oracle Java SE: 25.0.4 and 26.0.2. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Oracle Java SE. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized ability to cause a hang or frequently repeatable crash (complete DOS) of Oracle Java SE. Note: This vulnerability can be exploited by using APIs in the specified Component, e.g., through a web service which supplies data to the APIs. This vulnerability also applies to Java deployments, typically in clients running sandboxed Java Web Start applications or sandboxed Java applets, that load and run untrusted code (e.g., code that comes from the internet) and rely on the Java sandbox for security. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 7.5 (Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H).

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 10 / 9 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2026:55798 advisory.

    The OpenJDK 25 packages provide the OpenJDK 25 Java Runtime Environment and the OpenJDK 25 Java Software     Development Kit.

    Security Fix(es):

    * JDK: Improve Resource Resolving (CVE-2026-60589)

    * JDK: Enhance HTTP Connections (CVE-2026-61308)

    * JDK: Improve font loading (CVE-2026-70906)

    * JDK: Enhance TLS server (CVE-2026-70907)

    For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and     other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Red Hat Enterprise Linux security advisory.

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 OpenJDK installed on the remote host is 8 prior to 8u502 / 11.0.0 prior to 11.0.32 / 17.0.0 prior to 17.0.20 / 21.0.0 prior to 21.0.12 / 25.0.0 prior to 25.0.4 / 26.0.0 prior to 26.0.2. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the 2026-08-18 advisory.

Please Note: Java CVEs do not always include OpenJDK versions, but are confirmed separately by Tenable using the patch versions from the referenced OpenJDK security advisory.

  - Vulnerability in the Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM for JDK, Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition product of     Oracle Java SE (component: Networking). Supported versions that are affected are Oracle Java SE: 8u501,     11.0.32, 17.0.20, 21.0.12, 25.0.4, 26.0.2; Oracle GraalVM for JDK: 17.0.20 and 21.0.12; Oracle GraalVM     Enterprise Edition: 21.3.19. Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with     network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM for JDK, Oracle GraalVM Enterprise     Edition. While the vulnerability is in Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM for JDK, Oracle GraalVM Enterprise     Edition, attacks may significantly impact additional products (scope change). Successful attacks of this     vulnerability can result in unauthorized access to critical data or complete access to all Oracle Java SE,     Oracle GraalVM for JDK, Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition accessible data. Note: This vulnerability can be     exploited by using APIs in the specified Component, e.g., through a web service which supplies data to the     APIs. This vulnerability also applies to Java deployments, typically in clients running sandboxed Java Web     Start applications or sandboxed Java applets, that load and run untrusted code (e.g., code that comes from     the internet) and rely on the Java sandbox for security.
