Synopsis

IBM Java is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The version of IBM Java installed on the remote host is prior to 6.0 < 6.0.16.35 / 6.1 < 6.1.8.35 / 7.0 < 7.0.9.60 / 7.1 < 7.1.3.60 / 8.0 < 8.0.3.20. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the Oracle October 18 2016 CPU advisory.

- Unspecified vulnerability in Oracle Java SE 6u121, 7u111, 8u102; and Java SE Embedded 8u101 allows remote attackers to affect integrity via vectors related to Libraries. (CVE-2016-5542)

- Unspecified vulnerability in Oracle Java SE 6u121, 7u111, 8u102; and Java SE Embedded 8u101 allows remote attackers to affect integrity via vectors related to JMX. (CVE-2016-5554)

- Unspecified vulnerability in Oracle Java SE 6u121, 7u111, and 8u102 allows remote attackers to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability via vectors related to 2D. (CVE-2016-5556)

- Unspecified vulnerability in Oracle Java SE 6u121, 7u111, and 8u102 allows remote attackers to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability via vectors related to AWT. (CVE-2016-5568)

- Unspecified vulnerability in Oracle Java SE 6u121, 7u111, 8u102; and Java SE Embedded 8u101 allows remote attackers to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability via vectors related to Hotspot, a different vulnerability than CVE-2016-5582. (CVE-2016-5573)

- Unspecified vulnerability in Oracle Java SE 6u121, 7u111, 8u102; and Java SE Embedded 8u101 allows remote attackers to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability via vectors related to Hotspot, a different vulnerability than CVE-2016-5573. (CVE-2016-5582)

- Unspecified vulnerability in Oracle Java SE 6u121, 7u111, 8u102; and Java SE Embedded 8u101 allows remote attackers to affect confidentiality via vectors related to Networking. (CVE-2016-5597)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution
