The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 6 / 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2017:1204 advisory.

    The java-1.7.0-openjdk packages provide the OpenJDK 7 Java Runtime Environment and the OpenJDK 7 Java     Software Development Kit.

    Security Fix(es):

    * An untrusted library search path flaw was found in the JCE component of OpenJDK. A local attacker could     possibly use this flaw to cause a Java application using JCE to load an attacker-controlled library and     hence escalate their privileges. (CVE-2017-3511)

    * It was found that the JAXP component of OpenJDK failed to correctly enforce parse tree size limits when     parsing XML document. An attacker able to make a Java application parse a specially crafted XML document     could use this flaw to make it consume an excessive amount of CPU and memory. (CVE-2017-3526)

    * It was discovered that the HTTP client implementation in the Networking component of OpenJDK could cache     and re-use an NTLM authenticated connection in a different security context. A remote attacker could     possibly use this flaw to make a Java application perform HTTP requests authenticated with credentials of     a different user. (CVE-2017-3509)

    Note: This update adds support for the jdk.ntlm.cache system property which, when set to false, prevents     caching of NTLM connections and authentications and hence prevents this issue. However, caching remains     enabled by default.

    * It was discovered that the Security component of OpenJDK did not allow users to restrict the set of     algorithms allowed 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-2017-3539)

    Note: This updates extends the fix for CVE-2016-5542 released as part of the RHSA-2016:2658 erratum to no     longer allow the MD5 hash algorithm during the Jar integrity verification by adding it to the     jdk.jar.disabledAlgorithms security property.

    * Newline injection flaws were discovered in FTP and SMTP client implementations in the Networking     component in OpenJDK. A remote attacker could possibly use these flaws to manipulate FTP or SMTP     connections established by a Java application. (CVE-2017-3533, CVE-2017-3544)

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.

Improper re-use of NTLM authenticated connections (Networking, 8163520) :

It was discovered that the HTTP client implementation in the Networking component of OpenJDK could cache and re-use an NTLM authenticated connection in a different security context. A remote attacker could possibly use this flaw to make a Java application perform HTTP requests authenticated with credentials of a different user. (CVE-2017-3509)

Newline injection in the SMTP client (Networking, 8171533) :

A newline injection flaw was discovered in the SMTP client implementation in the Networking component in OpenJDK. A remote attacker could possibly use this flaw to manipulate SMTP connections established by a Java application. (CVE-2017-3544)

Newline injection in the FTP client (Networking, 8170222)

A newline injection flaw was discovered in the FTP client implementation in the Networking component in OpenJDK. A remote attacker could possibly use this flaw to manipulate FTP connections established by a Java application. (CVE-2017-3533)

Missing algorithm restrictions for jar verification (Libraries, 8155973) :

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)

Untrusted extension directories search path in Launcher (JCE, 8163528)

An untrusted library search path flaw was found in the JCE component of OpenJDK. A local attacker could possibly use this flaw to cause a Java application using JCE to load an attacker-controlled library and hence escalate their privileges. (CVE-2017-3511)

MD5 allowed for jar verification (Security, 8171121)

It was discovered that the Security component of OpenJDK did not allow users to restrict the set of algorithms allowed 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-2017-3539)

Incomplete XML parse tree size enforcement (JAXP, 8169011)

It was found that the JAXP component of OpenJDK failed to correctly enforce parse tree size limits when parsing XML document. An attacker able to make a Java application parse a specially crafted XML document could use this flaw to make it consume an excessive amount of CPU and memory. (CVE-2017-3526)

The remote Ubuntu 16.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-3275-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that OpenJDK improperly re-used cached NTLM connections in some situations. A remote     attacker could possibly use this to cause a Java application to perform actions with the credentials of a     different user. (CVE-2017-3509)

    It was discovered that an untrusted library search path flaw existed in the Java Cryptography Extension     (JCE) component of OpenJDK. A local attacker could possibly use this to gain the privileges of a Java     application. (CVE-2017-3511)

    It was discovered that the Java API for XML Processing (JAXP) component in OpenJDK did not properly     enforce size limits when parsing XML documents. An attacker could use this to cause a denial of service     (processor and memory consumption). (CVE-2017-3526)

    It was discovered that the FTP client implementation in OpenJDK did not properly sanitize user inputs. If     a user was tricked into opening a specially crafted FTP URL, a remote attacker could use this to     manipulate the FTP connection. (CVE-2017-3533)

    It was discovered that OpenJDK allowed MD5 to be used as an algorithm for JAR integrity verification. An     attacker could possibly use this to modify the contents of a JAR file without detection. (CVE-2017-3539)

    It was discovered that the SMTP client implementation in OpenJDK did not properly sanitize sender and     recipient addresses. A remote attacker could use this to specially craft email addresses and gain control     of a Java application's SMTP connections. (CVE-2017-3544)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory.

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