high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 400400

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities referenced in the following CVEs:

- Vulnerability in the Java SE, Java SE Embedded product of Oracle Java SE (component: Lightweight HTTP
Server). Supported versions that are affected are Java SE: 7u251, 8u241, 11.0.6 and 14; Java SE Embedded:
8u241. Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple
protocols to compromise Java SE, Java SE Embedded. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in
unauthorized update, insert or delete access to some of Java SE, Java SE Embedded accessible data as well
as unauthorized read access to a subset of Java SE, Java SE Embedded accessible data. Note: This
vulnerability can only be exploited by supplying data to APIs in the specified Component without using
Untrusted Java Web Start applications or Untrusted Java applets, such as through a web service.
(CVE-2020-2800)

- Vulnerability in the Java SE, Java SE Embedded product of Oracle Java SE (component: Scripting). Supported
versions that are affected are Java SE: 8u241, 11.0.6 and 14; Java SE Embedded: 8u241. Difficult to
exploit vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple protocols to
compromise Java SE, Java SE Embedded. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized
ability to cause a partial denial of service (partial DOS) of Java SE, Java SE Embedded. 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. (CVE-2020-2754, CVE-2020-2755)
