Description

The remote MiracleLinux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the AXSA:2021-1297:02 advisory.

 The java-11-openjdk packages provide the OpenJDK 11 Java Runtime Environment and the OpenJDK 11 Java Software Development Kit.
 Bug Fix(es) and Enhancement(s):
 * Currently, Java applications run with Speculative Store Bypass (SSB, CVE-2018-3639) disabled.
 Disabling SSB results in a performance degradation. With this update, SSB is only disabled when applications are run via the new 'alt-java' launcher.
 * Rebase to OpenJDK quarterly update 11.0.10.0. See release notes for full details CVE-2018-3639 Systems with microprocessors utilizing speculative execution and speculative execution of memory reads before the addresses of all prior memory writes are known may allow unauthorized disclosure of information to an attacker with local user access via a side-channel analysis, aka Speculative Store Bypass (SSB), Variant 4.
