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

  - A privilege escalation vulnerability in IBM Java     Virtual Machine allows remote attackers to execute code     to increase access in the context of a security manager.
    (CVE-2014-3086)

  - Data integrity vulnerabilities exist in Oracle Java     within the the Deployment subcomponent. (CVE-2014-4208,     CVE-2014-4220, CVE-2014-4265)

  - An information disclosure vulnerability in Oracle Java's     JMX subcomponent allows a remote attacker to view or     edit the SubjectDelegator class. (CVE-2014-4209)

  - A vulnerability in Oracle Java allows a remote attacker     to bypass security features via flaws in 'Proxy.java'     in the Libraries subcomponent. (CVE-2014-4218)

  - A vulnerability in Oracle Java allows remote code     execution via a flaw in the Hotspot subcomponent,     returning incomplete objects. (CVE-2014-4219)

  - An information disclosure vulnerability in Oracle Java's     Libraries subcomponent allows a remote attacker to view     sensitive information. (CVE-2014-4221)

  - Vulnerabilities in Oracle Java allow remote code     execution via flaws in the Deployment subcomponent.
    (CVE-2014-4227)

  - There are information disclosure vulnerabilities in the     Security subcomponent of Oracle Java that can allow     remote attackers to gain sensitive information,     including information about used keys. (CVE-2014-4244,     CVE-2014-4252, CVE-2014-4263)

  - A vulnerability in Oracle Java allows remote code     execution via a memory corruption flaw in the Libraries     subcomponent. (CVE-2014-4262)

  - A data integrity vulnerability exists in Oracle Java     within the Serviceability subcomponent due to incorrect     function return values. (CVE-2014-4266)

  - An information disclosure vulnerability in Oracle Java's     Swing subcomponent allows a remote attacker to view     restricted file contents. (CVE-2014-4268)

It was discovered that the Hotspot component in OpenJDK did not properly verify bytecode from the class files. An untrusted Java application or applet could possibly use these flaws to bypass Java sandbox restrictions. (CVE-2014-4216 , CVE-2014-4219)

A format string flaw was discovered in the Hotspot component event logger in OpenJDK. An untrusted Java application or applet could use this flaw to crash the Java Virtual Machine or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the Java Virtual Machine.
(CVE-2014-2490)

An improper permission check issue was discovered in the Libraries component in OpenJDK. An untrusted Java application or applet could use this flaw to bypass Java sandbox restrictions. (CVE-2014-4262)

Multiple flaws were discovered in the JMX, Libraries, Security, and Serviceability components in OpenJDK. An untrusted Java application or applet could use these flaws to bypass certain Java sandbox restrictions. (CVE-2014-4209 , CVE-2014-4218 , CVE-2014-4252 , CVE-2014-4266)

It was discovered that the RSA algorithm in the Security component in OpenJDK did not sufficiently perform blinding while performing operations that were using private keys. An attacker able to measure timing differences of those operations could possibly leak information about the used keys. (CVE-2014-4244)

The Diffie-Hellman (DH) key exchange algorithm implementation in the Security component in OpenJDK failed to validate public DH parameters properly. This could cause OpenJDK to accept and use weak parameters, allowing an attacker to recover the negotiated key. (CVE-2014-4263)

The VMware vCenter Server installed on the remote host is version 5.0 prior to Update 3c, 5.1 prior to Update 3, or 5.5 prior to Update 2.
It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities in third party libraries :

  - Due to improper certificate validation when connecting     to a CIM server on an ESXi host, an attacker can     perform man-in-the-middle attacks. (CVE-2014-8371)

  - The bundled version of Oracle JRE is prior to 1.6.0_81     and thus is affected by multiple vulnerabilities. Note     that this only affects version 5.1 and 5.0 of vCenter     but is only fixed in 5.1 Update 3.

Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in OpenJDK, an implementation of the Oracle Java platform, resulting in the execution of arbitrary code, breakouts of the Java sandbox, information disclosure or denial of service.

For Debian 6 'Squeeze', these problems have been fixed in version 6b33-1.13.5-2~deb6u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your openjdk-6 packages

Updated java-1.6.0-openjdk packages that fix multiple security issues and one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, 6, and 7.

The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having Important 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.

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

This update also fixes the following bug :

* Prior to this update, an application accessing an unsynchronized HashMap could potentially enter an infinite loop and consume an excessive amount of CPU resources. This update resolves this issue.
(BZ#1115580)

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.
