New! Plugin Severity Now Using CVSS v3

The calculated severity for Plugins has been updated to use CVSS v3 by default. Plugins that do not have a CVSS v3 score will fall back to CVSS v2 for calculating severity. Severity display preferences can be toggled in the settings dropdown.

Synopsis

The remote Windows host contains a programming platform that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The version of Oracle (formerly Sun) Java SE or Java for Business installed on the remote host is prior to 9 Update 1, 8 Update 151, 7 Update 161, or 6 Update 171. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities related to the following components :

 - 2D (Little CMS 2)
 - Deployment
 - Hotspot
 - JAX-WS
 - JAXP
 - Javadoc
 - Libraries
 - Networking
 - RMI
 - Security
 - Serialization
 - Smart Card IO
 - Util (zlib)

Solution

Upgrade to Oracle JDK / JRE 9 Update 1, 8 Update 151 / 7 Update 161 / 6 Update 171 or later. If necessary, remove any affected versions.

Note that an Extended Support contract with Oracle is needed to obtain JDK / JRE 6 Update 95 or later.
