The version of Azul Zulu installed on the remote host is 6 prior to 6.49 / 7 prior to 7.55 / 8 prior to 8.63 / 11 prior to 11.57 / 13 prior to 13.49 / 15 prior to 15.41 / 17 prior to 17.35 / 18 prior to 18.32. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the 2022-07-19 advisory.

  - The Apache Xalan Java XSLT library is vulnerable to an integer truncation issue when processing malicious     XSLT stylesheets. This can be used to corrupt Java class files generated by the internal XSLTC compiler     and execute arbitrary Java bytecode. Users are recommended to update to version 2.7.3 or later. Note: Java     runtimes (such as OpenJDK) include repackaged copies of Xalan. (CVE-2022-34169)

  - Vulnerability in the Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition product of Oracle Java SE     (component: Hotspot). Supported versions that are affected are Oracle Java SE: 7u343, 8u333, 11.0.15.1,     17.0.3.1, 18.0.1.1; Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition: 20.3.6, 21.3.2 and 22.1.0. Easily exploitable     vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise     Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in     unauthorized read access to a subset of Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition accessible data.
    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 can also be exploited by using     APIs in the specified Component, e.g., through a web service which supplies data to the APIs.
    (CVE-2022-21540)

Difficult to exploit     vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise     Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in     unauthorized creation, deletion or modification access to critical data or all Oracle Java SE, Oracle     GraalVM Enterprise Edition accessible data.

  - Vulnerability in the Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition product of Oracle Java SE     (component: Libraries). Supported versions that are affected are Oracle Java SE: 17.0.3.1; Oracle GraalVM     Enterprise Edition: 21.3.2 and 22.1.0. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker     with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Oracle Java SE, 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 Enterprise Edition accessible data. 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 can also be exploited by using     APIs in the specified Component, e.g., through a web service which supplies data to the APIs.
