medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 408540

Description

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

- 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: 8u421,
8u421-perf, 11.0.24, 17.0.12, 21.0.4, 23; Oracle GraalVM for JDK: 17.0.12, 21.0.4, 23; Oracle GraalVM
Enterprise Edition: 20.3.15 and 21.3.11. Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows unauthenticated
attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM for JDK,
Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized
ability to cause a partial denial of service (partial DOS) of Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM for JDK,
Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition. Note: This vulnerability 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. This
vulnerability does not apply to Java deployments, typically in servers, that load and run only trusted
code (e.g., code installed by an administrator). (CVE-2024-21208)

- Vulnerability in Oracle Java SE (component: Hotspot). Supported versions that are affected are Oracle Java
SE: 8u421, 8u421-perf, 11.0.24, 17.0.12, 21.0.4 and 23. Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows
unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Oracle Java SE.
Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized update, insert or delete access to
some of Oracle Java SE 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. (CVE-2024-21210)

- Vulnerability in the Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM for JDK, Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition product of
Oracle Java SE (component: Compiler). Supported versions that are affected are Oracle Java SE: 23; Oracle
GraalVM for JDK: 17.0.12, 21.0.4, 23; Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition: 20.3.15 and 21.3.11. Difficult to
exploit vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple protocols to
compromise Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM for JDK, Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition. Successful attacks
of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized update, insert or delete access to some of 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. (CVE-2024-21211)

- Vulnerability in the Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM for JDK, Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition product of
Oracle Java SE (component: Serialization). Supported versions that are affected are Oracle Java SE: 8u421,
8u421-perf, 11.0.24, 17.0.12, 21.0.4, 23; Oracle GraalVM for JDK: 17.0.12, 21.0.4, 23; Oracle GraalVM
Enterprise Edition: 20.3.15 and 21.3.11. Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows unauthenticated
attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM for JDK,
Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized
ability to cause a partial denial of service (partial DOS) of Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM for JDK,
Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition. 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. (CVE-2024-21217)

- Vulnerability in the Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM for JDK, Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition product of
Oracle Java SE (component: Hotspot). Supported versions that are affected are Oracle Java SE: 8u421,
8u421-perf, 11.0.24, 17.0.12, 21.0.4, 23; Oracle GraalVM for JDK: 17.0.12, 21.0.4, 23; Oracle GraalVM
Enterprise Edition: 20.3.15 and 21.3.11. Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows unauthenticated
attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM for JDK,
Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized
update, insert or delete access to some of Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM for JDK, Oracle GraalVM
Enterprise Edition accessible data as well as unauthorized read access to a subset of 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. (CVE-2024-21235)
