The remote Mac OS X host has a version of Java for Mac OS X 10.6 that is missing Update 16, which updates the Java version to 1.6.0_51.  It is, therefore, affected by multiple security vulnerabilities, the most serious of which may allow an untrusted Java applet to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the current user outside the Java sandbox.

Updated java-1.6.0-ibm packages that fix several security issues are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 and 6 Supplementary.

The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having critical security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base scores, which give detailed severity ratings, are available for each vulnerability from the CVE links in the References section.

IBM Java SE version 6 includes the IBM Java Runtime Environment and the IBM Java Software Development Kit.

This update fixes several vulnerabilities in the IBM Java Runtime Environment and the IBM Java Software Development Kit. Detailed vulnerability descriptions are linked from the IBM Security alerts page, listed in the References section. (CVE-2013-1500, CVE-2013-1571, CVE-2013-2407, CVE-2013-2412, CVE-2013-2437, CVE-2013-2442, CVE-2013-2443, CVE-2013-2444, CVE-2013-2446, CVE-2013-2447, CVE-2013-2448, CVE-2013-2450, CVE-2013-2451, CVE-2013-2452, CVE-2013-2453, CVE-2013-2454, CVE-2013-2455, CVE-2013-2456, CVE-2013-2457, CVE-2013-2459, CVE-2013-2463, CVE-2013-2464, CVE-2013-2465, CVE-2013-2466, CVE-2013-2468, CVE-2013-2469, CVE-2013-2470, CVE-2013-2471, CVE-2013-2472, CVE-2013-2473, CVE-2013-3743)

Red Hat would like to thank Tim Brown for reporting CVE-2013-1500, and US-CERT for reporting CVE-2013-1571. US-CERT acknowledges Oracle as the original reporter of CVE-2013-1571.

All users of java-1.6.0-ibm are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, containing the IBM Java SE 6 SR14 release. All running instances of IBM Java must be restarted for the update to take effect.

Updated java-1.7.0-ibm packages that fix several security issues are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 and 6 Supplementary.

All users of java-1.7.0-ibm are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, containing the IBM Java SE 7 SR5 release. All running instances of IBM Java must be restarted for the update to take effect.

IBM Java 1.7.0 has been updated to SR5 to fix bugs and security issues.

Please see also http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/java/jdk/alerts/

Also the following bugs have been fixed :

  - add Europe/Busingen to tzmappings. (bnc#817062)

  - mark files in jre/bin and bin/ as executable     (bnc#823034)

The version of VMware vCenter installed on the remote host is 5.0 prior to update 3 or 5.1 prior to update 2.  It is, therefore, potentially affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - A vulnerability exists in the handling of session IDs,     which could lead to an escalation of privileges.
    (CVE-2013-5971)

  - Multiple vulnerabilities exists in the bundled version     of the Java Runtime Environment.
