The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 5 / 6 / 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2015:0085 advisory.

    The java-1.6.0-openjdk packages provide the OpenJDK 6 Java Runtime     Environment and the OpenJDK 6 Java Software Development Kit.

    A flaw was found in the way the Hotspot component in OpenJDK verified     bytecode from the class files. An untrusted Java application or applet     could possibly use this flaw to bypass Java sandbox restrictions.
    (CVE-2014-6601)

    Multiple improper permission check issues were discovered in the JAX-WS,     and RMI components in OpenJDK. An untrusted Java application or applet     could use these flaws to bypass Java sandbox restrictions. (CVE-2015-0412,     CVE-2015-0408)

    A flaw was found in the way the Hotspot garbage collector handled phantom     references. An untrusted Java application or applet could use this flaw to     corrupt the Java Virtual Machine memory and, possibly, execute arbitrary     code, bypassing Java sandbox restrictions. (CVE-2015-0395)

    A flaw was found in the way the DER (Distinguished Encoding Rules) decoder     in the Security component in OpenJDK handled negative length values. A     specially crafted, DER-encoded input could cause a Java application to     enter an infinite loop when decoded. (CVE-2015-0410)

    A flaw was found in the way the SSL 3.0 protocol handled padding bytes when     decrypting messages that were encrypted using block ciphers in cipher block     chaining (CBC) mode. This flaw could possibly allow a man-in-the-middle     (MITM) attacker to decrypt portions of the cipher text using a padding     oracle attack. (CVE-2014-3566)

    Note: This update disables SSL 3.0 by default to address this issue.
    The jdk.tls.disabledAlgorithms security property can be used to re-enable     SSL 3.0 support if needed. For additional information, refer to the Red Hat     Bugzilla bug linked to in the References section.

    It was discovered that the SSL/TLS implementation in the JSSE component in     OpenJDK failed to properly check whether the ChangeCipherSpec was received     during the SSL/TLS connection handshake. An MITM attacker could possibly     use this flaw to force a connection to be established without encryption     being enabled. (CVE-2014-6593)

    An information leak flaw was found in the Swing component in OpenJDK. An     untrusted Java application or applet could use this flaw to bypass certain     Java sandbox restrictions. (CVE-2015-0407)

    A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the MulticastSocket     implementation in the Libraries component of OpenJDK. An untrusted Java     application or applet could possibly use this flaw to bypass certain Java     sandbox restrictions. (CVE-2014-6587)

    Multiple boundary check flaws were found in the font parsing code in the 2D     component in OpenJDK. A specially crafted font file could allow an     untrusted Java application or applet to disclose portions of the Java     Virtual Machine memory. (CVE-2014-6585, CVE-2014-6591)

    Multiple insecure temporary file use issues were found in the way the     Hotspot component in OpenJDK created performance statistics and error log     files. A local attacker could possibly make a victim using OpenJDK     overwrite arbitrary files using a symlink attack. (CVE-2015-0383)

    The CVE-2015-0383 issue was discovered by Red Hat.

    All users of java-1.6.0-openjdk are advised to upgrade to these updated     packages, which resolve these issues. All running instances of OpenJDK Java     must be restarted for the update to take effect.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Red Hat Enterprise Linux security advisory.

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

The version of VMware vCenter Operations Manager installed on the remote host has a bundled version of the Java JRE prior to version 1.7.0_76-b13 (aka 7.0.760). It is, therefore, affected by a man-in-the-middle (MitM) information disclosure vulnerability known as POODLE. The vulnerability is due to the way SSL 3.0 handles padding bytes when decrypting messages encrypted using block ciphers in cipher block chaining (CBC) mode. MitM attackers can decrypt a selected byte of a cipher text in as few as 256 tries if they are able to force a victim application to repeatedly send the same data over newly created SSL 3.0 connections. (CVE-2014-3566)

Additionally, unspecified vulnerabilities also exist in the following bundled Java components :

  - 2D (CVE-2014-6585, CVE-2014-6591)

  - Serviceability (CVE-2015-0413)

VMware has released a patch that updates the JRE bundled with the appliance.

The VMware Horizon View installed on the remote Windows host is version 5.x prior to 5.3.4 or version 6.x prior to 6.1. It is, therefore, affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - A man-in-the-middle (MitM) information disclosure     vulnerability, known as POODLE, exists due to the way     SSL 3.0 handles padding bytes when decrypting messages     encrypted using block ciphers in cipher block chaining     (CBC) mode. A MitM attacker can decrypt a selected byte     of a cipher text in as few as 256 tries if they are able     to force a victim application to repeatedly send the     same data over newly created SSL 3.0 connections.
    (CVE-2014-3566)

  - An XML external entity (XXE) injection vulnerability     exists in the included Flex BlazeDS component due to an     incorrect configuration of the XML parser that allows     external XML entities to be accepted from untrusted     sources. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit     this vulnerability, via a via a crafted AMF message, to     gain access to sensitive information. (CVE-2015-3269)

  - A flaw exists in the bundled Adobe ColdFusion and     LiveCycle Data Services components related to request     handling between a user and the server. A remote     attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted     request, to bypass access restrictions (e.g. host or     network ACLs), conduct port scanning of internal     networks, enumerate internal hosts, or possibly invoke     additional protocols (e.g. Gopher, TFTP).
    (CVE-2015-5255)
