High
| Vector | AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Java SE versions 7u211 and 8u202
Description
The issue is related to insufficient access control in the 2D component of Oracle Java SE, which can be exploited by a remote attacker to gain full control over the application. This vulnerability can be difficult to exploit and allows an unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Java SE, resulting in a takeover of Java SE. The vulnerability 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 version 7u211, update to a version that contains the fix for this issue.
For Java SE version 8u202, update to a version that contains the fix for this issue.
As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of the 2D component in Java SE until a patch is available.
Avoid loading and running untrusted code in Java deployments to minimize the risk of exploitation.
