This update for java-1_7_1-ibm fixes the following issues :

  - Version update to 7.1-3.60 (bsc#1009280) Fixing the     following CVE's: CVE-2016-5568, CVE-2016-5556,     CVE-2016-5573, CVE-2016-5597, CVE-2016-5554,     CVE-2016-5542

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

The version of IBM Java installed on the remote host is prior to 6.0 < 6.0.16.35 / 6.1 < 6.1.8.35 / 7.0 < 7.0.9.60 / 7.1 < 7.1.3.60 / 8.0 < 8.0.3.20. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the Oracle October 18 2016 CPU advisory.

  - Unspecified vulnerability in Oracle Java SE 6u121, 7u111, 8u102; and Java SE Embedded 8u101 allows remote     attackers to affect integrity via vectors related to Libraries. (CVE-2016-5542)

  - Unspecified vulnerability in Oracle Java SE 6u121, 7u111, 8u102; and Java SE Embedded 8u101 allows remote     attackers to affect integrity via vectors related to JMX. (CVE-2016-5554)

  - Unspecified vulnerability in Oracle Java SE 6u121, 7u111, and 8u102 allows remote attackers to affect     confidentiality, integrity, and availability via vectors related to 2D. (CVE-2016-5556)

  - Unspecified vulnerability in Oracle Java SE 6u121, 7u111, and 8u102 allows remote attackers to affect     confidentiality, integrity, and availability via vectors related to AWT. (CVE-2016-5568)

  - Unspecified vulnerability in Oracle Java SE 6u121, 7u111, 8u102; and Java SE Embedded 8u101 allows remote     attackers to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability via vectors related to Hotspot, a     different vulnerability than CVE-2016-5582. (CVE-2016-5573)

  - Unspecified vulnerability in Oracle Java SE 6u121, 7u111, 8u102; and Java SE Embedded 8u101 allows remote     attackers to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability via vectors related to Hotspot, a     different vulnerability than CVE-2016-5573. (CVE-2016-5582)

  - Unspecified vulnerability in Oracle Java SE 6u121, 7u111, 8u102; and Java SE Embedded 8u101 allows remote     attackers to affect confidentiality via vectors related to Networking. (CVE-2016-5597)

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

Security Fix(es) :

  - It was discovered that the Hotspot component of OpenJDK     did not properly check arguments of the     System.arraycopy() function in certain cases. An     untrusted Java application or applet could use this flaw     to corrupt virtual machine's memory and completely     bypass Java sandbox restrictions. (CVE-2016-5582)

  - It was discovered that the Hotspot component of OpenJDK     did not properly check received Java Debug Wire Protocol     (JDWP) packets. An attacker could possibly use this flaw     to send debugging commands to a Java program running     with debugging enabled if they could make victim's     browser send HTTP requests to the JDWP port of the     debugged application. (CVE-2016-5573)

  - It was discovered that the Libraries component of     OpenJDK did not restrict the set of algorithms used for     Jar integrity verification. This flaw could allow an     attacker to modify content of the Jar file that used     weak signing key or hash algorithm. (CVE-2016-5542)

Note: After this update, MD2 hash algorithm and RSA keys with less than 1024 bits are no longer allowed to be used for Jar integrity verification by default. MD5 hash algorithm is expected to be disabled by default in the future updates. A newly introduced security property jdk.jar.disabledAlgorithms can be used to control the set of disabled algorithms.

  - A flaw was found in the way the JMX component of OpenJDK     handled classloaders. An untrusted Java application or     applet could use this flaw to bypass certain Java     sandbox restrictions. (CVE-2016-5554)

  - A flaw was found in the way the Networking component of     OpenJDK handled HTTP proxy authentication. A Java     application could possibly expose HTTPS server     authentication credentials via a plain text network     connection to an HTTP proxy if proxy asked for     authentication. (CVE-2016-5597)

Note: After this update, Basic HTTP proxy authentication can no longer be used when tunneling HTTPS connection through an HTTP proxy. Newly introduced system properties jdk.http.auth.proxying.disabledSchemes and jdk.http.auth.tunneling.disabledSchemes can be used to control which authentication schemes can be requested by an HTTP proxy when proxying HTTP and HTTPS connections respectively.

The version of Java SDK installed on the remote AIX host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities in the following subcomponents :

  - An unspecified flaw exists in the Libraries subcomponent     that allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to     impact integrity. (CVE-2016-5542)

  - An unspecified flaw exists in the JMX subcomponent that     allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to impact     integrity. (CVE-2016-5554)

  - An unspecified flaw exists in the 2D subcomponent that     allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute     arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-5556)

  - An unspecified flaw exists in the AWT subcomponent that     allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute     arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-5568)

  - An unspecified flaw exists in the Networking     subcomponent that allows an unauthenticated, remote     attacker to disclose sensitive information.
    (CVE-2016-5597)

An update for java-1.6.0-openjdk is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6, and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Important. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from the CVE link(s) in the References section.

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

Virtuozzo provides no description for VZLSA advisories. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

The version of Oracle Java SE installed on the remote host is prior to 6 Update 131, 7 Update 121, or 8 Update 112 and is affected by multiple vulnerabilities :
