Summary: Updated java-1.7.0-openjdk packages that fix various security issues are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having critical security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base scores, which give detailed severity ratings, are available for each vulnerability from the CVE links in the References section. 2. Relevant releases/architectures: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Desktop (v. 6) - i386, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux Desktop Optional (v. 6) - i386, noarch, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux HPC Node (v. 6) - x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux HPC Node Optional (v. 6) - noarch, x86_64 Red HatEnterprise Linux Server (v. 6) - i386, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server Optional (v. 6) - i386, noarch, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux Workstation (v. 6) - i386, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux Workstation Optional (v. 6) - i386, noarch, x86_64 3. Description: These packages provide the OpenJDK 7 Java Runtime Environment and the OpenJDK 7 Software Development Kit. Multiple flaws were discovered in the ImagingLib and the image attribute, channel, layout and raster processing in the 2D component. An untrusted Java application or applet could possibly use these flaws to trigger Java Virtual Machine memory corruption. (CVE-2013-2470, CVE-2013-2471, CVE-2013-2472, CVE-2013-2473, CVE-2013-2463, CVE-2013-2465, CVE-2013-2469) Integer overflow flaws were found in the way AWT processed certain input. An attacker could use these flaws to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running an untrusted Java applet or application. (CVE-2013-2459) Multiple improper permission check issues were discovered in the Sound, JDBC, Libraries, JMX, and Serviceability components in OpenJDK. An untrusted Java application or applet could use these flaws to bypass Java sandbox restrictions. (CVE-2013-2448, CVE-2013-2454, CVE-2013-2458, CVE-2013-2457, CVE-2013-2453, CVE-2013-2460) Multiple flaws in the Serialization, Networking, Libraries and CORBA components can be exploited by an untrusted Java application or applet to gain access to potentially sensitive information. (CVE-2013-2456, CVE-2013-2447, CVE-2013-2455, CVE-2013-2452, CVE-2013-2443, CVE-2013-2446) It was discovered that the Hotspot component did not properly handle out-of-memory errors. An untrusted Java application or applet could possibly use these flaws to terminate the Java Virtual Machine. (CVE-2013-2445) It was discovered that the AWT component did not properly manage certain resources and that the ObjectStreamClass of the Serialization component did not properly handle circular references. An untrusted Java application or applet could possiblyuse these flaws to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2013-2444, CVE-2013-2450) It was discovered that the Libraries component contained certain errorsrelated to XML security and the class loader. A remote attacker could possibly exploit these flaws to bypass intended security mechanisms or disclose potentially sensitive information and cause a denial of service. (CVE-2013-2407, CVE-2013-2461) It was discovered that JConsole did not properly inform the user when establishing an SSL connection failed. An attacker could exploit this flaw to gain access to potentially sensitive information. (CVE-2013-2412) It was discovered that GnomeFileTypeDetector did not check for read permissions when accessing files. An untrusted Java application or applet could possibly use this flaw to disclose potentially sensitive information. (CVE-2013-2449) It was found that documentation generated by Javadoc was vulnerable to a frame injection attack. If such documentation was accessible over a network, and a remote attacker could trick a user into visiting a specially-crafted URL, it would lead to arbitrary web content being displayed next to the documentation. This could be used to perform a phishing attack by providing frame content that spoofed a login form on the site hosting the vulnerable documentation. (CVE-2013-1571) It was discovered that the 2D component created shared memory segments with insecure permissions. A local attacker could use this flaw to read or write to the shared memory segment. (CVE-2013-1500) Red Hat would like to thank Tim Brown for reporting CVE-2013-1500, and US-CERT for reporting CVE-2013-1571. US-CERT acknowledges Oracle as the original reporter of CVE-2013-1571. Note: If the web browser plug-in provided by the icedtea-web package was installed, the issues exposed via Java applets could have been exploited without user interaction if a user visited a malicious website. After installing this update, users of icedtea-web must install RHBA-2013:0959 for icedtea-web to continue functioning. Thiserratum also upgrades the OpenJDK package to IcedTea7 2.3.10. Refer to the NEWS file, linked to in the References, for further information. 4. Solution: All users of java-1.7.0-openjdk are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which resolve these issues. All running instances of OpenJDK Java must be restarted for the update to take effect. Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata relevant to your system have been applied. This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at https://access.redhat.com/articles/11258 5.

Beside other features, Admins will be asked to change their passwords next time they log in after upgrading. Affected products: openSUSE 11.0-11.1 - xpdf This update of xpdf fixes an integer overflow that may lead to code execution. (CVE-2009-4035: CVSS v2 Base Score: 6.8) Affected products: SLES SDK 9 - pdns-recursor This update of pdns-rucursor improves the packet parsing code to fix a possible DNS spoofing vulnerability (CVE-2009-4010) and a remote buffer overflow that could give the ability to execute arbitrary code (CVE-2009-4009). Affected products: openSUSE 11.0-11.2 - pango Long glyph string could trigger a heap-based buffer overflow in pango (CVE-2009-1194). Affected products: openSUSE 11.0-11.1, NLD9, SLES9, SLE10, SLE11 - horde This update of horde fixes: - CVE-2009-3236: CVSS v2 Base Score: 5.0: Overwrite arbitrary files and execute PHP code - CVE-2009-3237: CVSS v2 Base Score: 5.0: Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) - CVE-2009-3701: CVSS v2 Base Score: 4.3: Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) - CVE-2009-4363: CVSS v2 Base Score: 4.3: Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) Affected products: openSUSE 11.0 - gnome-screensaver gnome-screensaver was updated to the stable release2.28.3, fixing various bugs and security issues. Following security issues have been fixed: When resuming a system gnome-screensaver does not lock external displays that got connected while the system was suspended (CVE-2010-0285: CVSS v2 Base Score: 5.6). Additionally another bug in gnome-screensaver was fixed that allowed bypassing the unlock dialog by using a removable monitor. (CVE-2010-0414: CVSS v2 Base Score: 6.2) Pressing "return" repeatedly caused a X error which terminated the lock and so allowed local users to access the underlying session. CVE-2010-0422: gnome-screensaver can lose its keyboard grab when locked, exposing the system to intrusion by adding and removing monitors. Affected products: openSUSE 11.1-11.2 - fuse A race condition in fusermount allowed users to umount any filesystem (CVE-2009-3297). Affected products: SLE SDK 10, SLED10 - gnutls gnutls did not properly handle embedded '\0' characters in x509 certificates. Attackers using specially crafted certificates could exploit that to conduct man-in-the-middle attacks (CVE-2009-2730). Affected products: openSUSE 11.2 - flash-player Insufficient checks in flash-player allowed malicious flash applets to create illegal cross-domain requests (CVE-2010-0186). The update also fixes a denial of service condition (CVE-2010-0187).
