| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Java SE versions 6u131, 7u121, and 8u112
Java SE Embedded version 8u111
Description
The issue allows an unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Java SE and Java SE Embedded. Successful attacks require human interaction from a person other than the attacker and may significantly impact additional products. The vulnerability can result in the takeover of Java SE and Java SE Embedded. This issue applies to Java deployments that load and run untrusted code, such as sandboxed Java Web Start applications or sandboxed Java applets, and rely on the Java sandbox for security.
Recommendations
For Java SE versions 6u131, 7u121, and 8u112, update to a version that contains a fix for this issue.
For Java SE Embedded version 8u111, update to a version that contains a fix for this issue.
As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of Java sandboxed applications until a patch is available.
Avoid loading and running untrusted code in Java deployments to minimize the risk of exploitation.
