Synopsis |
16 |
======== |
17 |
|
18 |
BEA JRockit contains several vulnerabilities, some of which may allow |
19 |
the execution of arbitrary code. |
20 |
|
21 |
Background |
22 |
========== |
23 |
|
24 |
BEA JRockit provides tools, utilities, and a complete runtime |
25 |
environment for developing and running applications using the Java |
26 |
programming language. |
27 |
|
28 |
Affected packages |
29 |
================= |
30 |
|
31 |
------------------------------------------------------------------- |
32 |
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected |
33 |
------------------------------------------------------------------- |
34 |
1 dev-java/jrockit-jdk-bin < 1.5.0.11_p1 >= 1.5.0.11_p1 |

|
36 |
Description |
37 |
=========== |
38 |
|
39 |
An integer overflow vulnerability exists in the embedded ICC profile |
40 |
image parser (CVE-2007-2788), an unspecified vulnerability exists in |
41 |
the font parsing implementation (CVE-2007-4381), and an error exists |
42 |
when processing XSLT stylesheets contained in XSLT Transforms in XML |
43 |
signatures (CVE-2007-3716), among other vulnerabilities. |
44 |
|
45 |
Impact |
46 |
====== |
47 |
|
48 |
A remote attacker could trigger the integer overflow to execute |
49 |
arbitrary code or crash the JVM through a specially crafted file. Also, |
50 |
an attacker could perform unauthorized actions via an applet that |
51 |
grants certain privileges to itself because of the font parsing |
52 |
vulnerability. The error when processing XSLT stylesheets can be |
53 |
exploited to execute arbitrary code. Other vulnerabilities could lead |
54 |
to establishing restricted network connections to certain services, |
55 |
Cross Site Scripting and Denial of Service attacks. |
56 |
|
57 |
Workaround |
58 |
========== |
59 |
|
60 |
There is no known workaround at this time for all these |
61 |
vulnerabilities. |
62 |
|
63 |
Resolution |
64 |
========== |
65 |
|
66 |
All BEA JRockit users should upgrade to the latest version: |
67 |
|
68 |
# emerge --sync |
69 |
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-java/jrockit-jdk-bin-1.5.0.11_p1" |
