Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Oracle Java SE versions 8u152 and 9.0.1

Description A difficult to exploit vulnerability in the Java SE component allows an unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Java SE. 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. 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 Oracle Java SE version 8u152, update to a version that fixes this issue. For Oracle Java SE version 9.0.1, update to a version that fixes this issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of sandboxed Java Web Start applications or sandboxed Java applets that load and run untrusted code until a patch is available.
