Alpine: multiple openjdk8 packages: security update to 8.242.08-r0

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 405970

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: Serialization).
Supported versions that are affected are Java SE: 7u241, 8u231, 11.0.5 and 13.0.1; Java SE Embedded:
8u231. 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
takeover of Java SE, Java SE Embedded. Note: This vulnerability applies to Java deployments, typically in
clients running sandboxed Java Web Start applications or sandboxed Java applets (in Java SE 8), that load
and run untrusted code (e.g., code that comes from the internet) and rely on the Java sandbox for
security. This vulnerability can also be exploited by using APIs in the specified Component, e.g., through
a web service which supplies data to the APIs. (CVE-2020-2604)

- Vulnerability in the Java SE, Java SE Embedded product of Oracle Java SE (component: Serialization).
Supported versions that are affected are Java SE: 7u241, 8u231, 11.0.5 and 13.0.1; Java SE Embedded:
8u231. 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: This vulnerability applies to Java deployments, typically in clients running sandboxed Java Web
Start applications or sandboxed Java applets (in Java SE 8), that load and run untrusted code (e.g., code
that comes from the internet) and rely on the Java sandbox for security. This vulnerability can also be
exploited by using APIs in the specified Component, e.g., through a web service which supplies data to the
APIs. (CVE-2020-2583)

- Vulnerability in the Java SE, Java SE Embedded product of Oracle Java SE (component: Security). Supported
versions that are affected are Java SE: 7u241, 8u231, 11.0.5 and 13.0.1; Java SE Embedded: 8u231.
Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via Kerberos 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. Note: This
vulnerability applies to Java deployments, typically in clients running sandboxed Java Web Start
applications or sandboxed Java applets (in Java SE 8), that load and run untrusted code (e.g., code that
comes from the internet) and rely on the Java sandbox for security. This vulnerability can also be
exploited by using APIs in the specified Component, e.g., through a web service which supplies data to the
APIs. (CVE-2020-2590)

- Vulnerability in the Java SE, Java SE Embedded product of Oracle Java SE (component: Networking).
Supported versions that are affected are Java SE: 7u241, 8u231, 11.0.5 and 13.0.1; Java SE Embedded:
8u231. 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 applies to Java deployments, typically in clients running sandboxed Java Web Start
applications or sandboxed Java applets (in Java SE 8), that load and run untrusted code (e.g., code that
comes from the internet) and rely on the Java sandbox for security. This vulnerability can also be
exploited by using APIs in the specified Component, e.g., through a web service which supplies data to the
APIs. (CVE-2020-2593)

- Vulnerability in the Java SE, Java SE Embedded product of Oracle Java SE (component: Security). Supported
versions that are affected are Java SE: 7u241, 8u231, 11.0.5 and 13.0.1; Java SE Embedded: 8u231.
Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via Kerberos to
compromise Java SE, Java SE Embedded. While the vulnerability is in Java SE, Java SE Embedded, attacks may
significantly impact additional products. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in
unauthorized access to critical data or complete access to all Java SE, Java SE Embedded accessible data.
Note: This vulnerability applies to Java deployments, typically in clients running sandboxed Java Web
Start applications or sandboxed Java applets (in Java SE 8), that load and run untrusted code (e.g., code
that comes from the internet) and rely on the Java sandbox for security. This vulnerability can also be
exploited by using APIs in the specified Component, e.g., through a web service which supplies data to the
APIs. (CVE-2020-2601)
