Medium
| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Java SE versions 7u251, 8u241, 11.0.6, and 14
Java SE Embedded version 8u241
Description
The issue is related to insufficient input validation in the Concurrency component of Oracle Java SE and Java SE Embedded. This can be exploited by an unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple protocols, potentially leading to a partial denial of service. The vulnerability can be exploited through sandboxed Java Web Start applications, sandboxed Java applets, or by supplying data to APIs in the specified component.
Recommendations
For Java SE versions 7u251, 8u241, 11.0.6, and 14, consider disabling the Concurrency component until a patch is available.
For Java SE Embedded version 8u241, restrict access to the Concurrency component to minimize the risk of exploitation.
As a temporary workaround, avoid using APIs in the Concurrency component without proper input validation until the issue is resolved.
