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.

Note: If the web browser plug-in provided by the icedtea-web package was installed, the issues exposed via Java applets could have been exploited without user interaction if a user visited a malicious website.

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201611-04 (Oracle JRE/JDK: Multiple vulnerabilities)
