Description

The remote MiracleLinux 4 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the AXSA:2012-662:03 advisory.

The OpenJDK runtime environment.
Security issues fixed with this release:
CVE-2012-1711 Unspecified vulnerability in the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) component in Oracle Java SE 7 update 4 and earlier, 6 update 32 and earlier, 5 update 35 and earlier, and 1.4.2_37 and earlier allows remote attackers to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability, related to CORBA.
CVE-2012-1713 Unspecified vulnerability in the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) component in Oracle Java SE 7 update 4 and earlier, 6 update 32 and earlier, 5 update 35 and earlier, 1.4.2_37 and earlier, and JavaFX 2.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability via unknown vectors related to 2D.
CVE-2012-1716 Unspecified vulnerability in the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) component in Oracle Java SE 7 update 4 and earlier, 6 update 32 and earlier, and 5 update 35 and earlier allows remote attackers to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability via unknown vectors related to Swing.
CVE-2012-1717 Unspecified vulnerability in the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) component in Oracle Java SE 7 update 4 and earlier, 6 update 32 and earlier, 5 update 35 and earlier, and 1.4.2_37 and earlier allows local users to affect confidentiality via unknown vectors related to printing on Solaris or Linux.
CVE-2012-1718 Unspecified vulnerability in the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) component in Oracle Java SE 7 update 4 and earlier, 6 update 32 and earlier, 5 update 35 and earlier, and 1.4.2_37 and earlier allows remote attackers to affect availability via unknown vectors related to Security.
CVE-2012-1719 Unspecified vulnerability in the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) component in Oracle Java SE 7 update 4 and earlier, 6 update 32 and earlier, 5 update 35 and earlier, and 1.4.2_37 and earlier allows remote attackers to affect integrity, related to CORBA.
CVE-2012-1723 Unspecified vulnerability in the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) component in Oracle Java SE 7 update 4 and earlier, 6 update 32 and earlier, 5 update 35 and earlier, and 1.4.2_37 and earlier allows remote attackers to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability via unknown vectors related to Hotspot.
CVE-2012-1724 Unspecified vulnerability in the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) component in Oracle Java SE 7 update 4 and earlier, and 6 update 32 and earlier, allows remote attackers to affect availability, related to JAXP.
CVE-2012-1725 Unspecified vulnerability in the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) component in Oracle Java SE 7 update 4 and earlier, 6 update 32 and earlier, and 5 update 35 and earlier allows remote attackers to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability via unknown vectors related to Hotspot.
Fixed bugs:
Starting with java-1.6.0-openjdk-1.6.0.0-1.42.1.10.4.AXS4, rmiregisty, the Java Remote Object Registry, would only start if run with the java.rmi.server.codebase argument. This has been fixed and the registry can started without argument.
Fixed the implementation of channel binding for the Kerberos protocol: OpenJDK now process Kerberos General Security Services contexts and handles unset channel binding correctly, fixing interopability problems with Internet Explorer on Windows Server 2008.
The SystemTap script translator sometimes crashed when used with jstack() systemtap support with an error message similar to:
ERROR: kernel read fault at 0x0000000000000018 (addr) near identifier '@cast' at /usr/share/systemtap/tapset/x86_64/jstack.stp:362:29 The jstack code has been imprved and is now more reliable.
Fixed many problems when using signed jar files.
Enhancement:
Added support for huge.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the MiracleLinux security advisory.

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

Solution

Update the affected java-1.6.0-openjdk, java-1.6.0-openjdk-devel and / or java-1.6.0-openjdk-javadoc packages.
