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 Debian host is missing a security-related update.

Description

Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in OpenJDK, an implementation of the Oracle Java platform, resulting in breakouts of the Java sandbox or denial of service.

Solution

Upgrade the openjdk-7 packages.

For the stable distribution (jessie), these problems have been fixed in version 7u111-2.6.7-1~deb8u1.
