critical Nessus Plugin ID 86543

Language:

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 Unix 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 8 Update 65, 7 Update 91, or 6 Update 105. It is, therefore, affected by security vulnerabilities in the following components :

 - 2D
 - CORBA
 - Deployment
 - JavaFX
 - JAXP
 - JGSS
 - Libraries
 - RMI
 - Security
 - Serialization

Solution

Upgrade to Oracle JDK / JRE 8 Update 65, 7 Update 91, 6 Update 105, 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.
