The version of Oracle (formerly Sun) Java SE or Java for Business installed on the remote host is prior to 8 Update 25, 7 Update 71, 6 Update 85, or 5 Update 75. It is, therefore, affected by security issues in the following components :

  - 2D
  - AWT
  - Deployment
  - Hotspot
  - JAXP
  - JSSE
  - JavaFX
  - Libraries
  - Security

Updated java-1.7.0-oracle packages that fix several security issues are now available for Oracle Java for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, 6, and 7.

Red Hat Product Security 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.

Oracle Java SE version 7 includes the Oracle Java Runtime Environment and the Oracle Java Software Development Kit.

This update fixes several vulnerabilities in the Oracle Java Runtime Environment and the Oracle Java Software Development Kit. Further information about these flaws can be found on the Oracle Java SE Critical Patch Update Advisory page, listed in the References section.
(CVE-2014-4288, CVE-2014-6456, CVE-2014-6457, CVE-2014-6458, CVE-2014-6476, CVE-2014-6492, CVE-2014-6493, CVE-2014-6502, CVE-2014-6503, CVE-2014-6504, CVE-2014-6506, CVE-2014-6511, CVE-2014-6512, CVE-2014-6515, CVE-2014-6517, CVE-2014-6519, CVE-2014-6527, CVE-2014-6531, CVE-2014-6532, CVE-2014-6558)

The CVE-2014-6512 issue was discovered by Florian Weimer of Red Hat Product Security.

All users of java-1.7.0-oracle are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which provide Oracle Java 7 Update 72 and resolve these issues. All running instances of Oracle Java must be restarted for the update to take effect.

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

  - A privilege escalation vulnerability in the IBM Java SDK     allows a local attacker to inject arbitrary code into     the shared classes cache due to a flaw in the default     configuration for the shared classes feature. Other     users are able to execute the injected code, which can     allow the attacker to gain elevated privileges.
    (CVE-2014-3065)

  - Oracle Java contains the flaw related to SSLv3 CBC-mode     ciphers known as POODLE. The vulnerability is due to the     way SSL 3.0 handles padding bytes when decrypting     messages encrypted using block ciphers in cipher block     chaining (CBC) mode. A man-in-the-middle attacker can     decrypt a selected byte of a cipher text in as few as     256 tries if they are able to force a victim application     to repeatedly send the same data over newly created SSL     3.0 connections. (CVE-2014-3566)

  - Vulnerabilities in Oracle Java allow remote code     execution via flaws in the Deployment subcomponent.
    (CVE-2014-4288, CVE-2014-6492, CVE-2014-6493,     CVE-2014-6503, CVE-2014-6532)

  - A session hijacking vulnerability exists in Oracle Java     due to a flaw related to handling of server certificate     changes during SSL/TLS renegotiation. This allows an     attacker to intercept communication between a client and     server to hijack a mutually authenticated session.
    (CVE-2014-6457)

  - Privilege escalation vulnerabilities exist in Oracle     Java within the the Deployment subcomponent.
    (CVE-2014-6458, CVE-2014-6466)

  - Data integrity vulnerabilities exist in Oracle Java     within the the Deployment subcomponent. (CVE-2014-6476,     CVE-2014-6515, CVE-2014-6527)

  - A privilege escalation vulnerability exists in Oracle     Java in the resource bundle handling code of the     'LogRecord::readObject' function within the file     'share/classes/java/util/logging/LogRecord.java',     which allows an attacker to bypass certain sandbox     restrictions. (CVE-2014-6502)

  - A privilege escalation vulnerability exists in Oracle     Java within the property processing and name handling     code of 'share/classes/java/util/ResourceBundle.java',     which allows an attacker to bypass certain sandbox     restrictions. (CVE-2014-6506)

  - Oracle Java contains an unspecified vulnerability in the     2D subcomponent. (CVE-2014-6511)

  - An information disclosure vulnerability exists in Oracle     Java due to a flaw related to the wrapping of datagram     sockets in the DatagramSocket implementation. This issue     may cause packets to be read that originate from other     sources than the connected, thus allowing a remote     attacker to carry out IP spoofing. (CVE-2014-6512)

  - A flaw exists in the way splash images are handled by     'windows/native/sun/awt/splashscreen/splashscreen_sys.c'     which allows remote code execution. (CVE-2014-6513)

  - A privilege escalation vulnerability exists in Oracle     Java in 'share/classes/java/util/logging/Logger.java'     because it fails to check permissions in certain cases,     allowing an attacker to bypass sandbox restrictions and     view or edit logs. (CVE-2014-6531)

  - A flaw related to input cipher streams within the file     'share/classes/javax/crypto/CipherInputStream.java' can     allow a remote attacker to affect the data integrity.
    (CVE-2014-6558)

Updated java-1.7.1-ibm packages that fix several security issues are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 and 7 Supplementary.

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Oracle&rsquo;s Java SE       Development Kit and Runtime Environment. Please review the CVE       identifiers referenced below for details.
  Impact :

    A context-dependent attacker may be able to execute arbitrary code,       disclose, update, insert, or delete certain data.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

Oracle's October 2014 security update for Java fixes remote and local vulnerabilities in the following components of the Java SE JDK/JRE:
