Synopsis
========
Multiple vulnerabilites in the Sun JDK and JRE allow for several
attacks, including the remote execution of arbitrary code.
Background
==========
The Sun Java Development Kit (JDK) and the Sun Java Runtime Environment
(JRE) provide the Sun Java platform.
Affected packages
=================
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
-------------------------------------------------------------------
1 sun-jre-bin < 1.6.0.17 *>= 1.5.0.22
>= 1.6.0.17
2 sun-jdk < 1.6.0.17 *>= 1.5.0.22
>= 1.6.0.17
3 blackdown-jre <= 1.4.2.03-r14 Vulnerable!
4 blackdown-jdk <= 1.4.2.03-r16 Vulnerable!
5 emul-linux-x86-java < 1.6.0.17 *>= 1.5.0.22
>= 1.6.0.17
-------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE: Certain packages are still vulnerable. Users should migrate
to another package if one is available or wait for the
existing packages to be marked stable by their
architecture maintainers.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
5 affected packages on all of their supported architectures.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Description
===========
Multiple vulnerabilites have been reported in the Sun Java
implementation. Please review the CVE identifiers referenced below and
the associated Sun Alerts for details.
Impact
======
A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted JAR
archive, applet, or Java Web Start application, possibly resulting in
the execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running
the application. Furthermore, a remote attacker could cause a Denial of
Service affecting multiple services via several vectors, disclose
information and memory contents, write or execute local files, conduct
session hijacking attacks via GIFAR files, steal cookies, bypass the
same-origin policy, load untrusted JAR files, establish network
connections to arbitrary hosts and posts via several vectors, modify
the list of supported graphics configurations, bypass HMAC-based
authentication systems, escalate privileges via several vectors and
cause applet code to be executed with older, possibly vulnerable
versions of the JRE.
NOTE: Some vulnerabilities require a trusted environment, user
interaction, a DNS Man-in-the-Middle or Cross-Site-Scripting attack.
Workaround
==========
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution
==========
All Sun JRE 1.5.x users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose =dev-java/sun-jre-bin-1.5.0.22
All Sun JRE 1.6.x users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose =dev-java/sun-jre-bin-1.6.0.17
All Sun JDK 1.5.x users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose =dev-java/sun-jdk-1.5.0.22
All Sun JDK 1.6.x users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose =dev-java/sun-jdk-1.6.0.17
All users of the precompiled 32bit Sun JRE 1.5.x should upgrade to the
latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose
=app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-java-1.5.0.22
All users of the precompiled 32bit Sun JRE 1.6.x should upgrade to the
latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose
=app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-java-1.6.0.17
All Sun JRE 1.4.x, Sun JDK 1.4.x, Blackdown JRE, Blackdown JDK and
precompiled 32bit Sun JRE 1.4.x users are strongly advised to unmerge
Java 1.4:
# emerge --unmerge =app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-java-1.4*
# emerge --unmerge =dev-java/sun-jre-bin-1.4*
# emerge --unmerge =dev-java/sun-jdk-1.4*
# emerge --unmerge dev-java/blackdown-jdk
# emerge --unmerge dev-java/blackdown-jre
Gentoo is ceasing support for the 1.4 generation of the Sun Java
Platform in accordance with upstream. All 1.4 JRE and JDK versions are
masked and will be removed shortly.
