Critical
Published: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

A vulnerability in the Java SE component of Oracle Java SE (subcomponent: JavaFX) allows an unauthenticated attacker with network access to compromise Java SE. Successful attacks require human interaction and may significantly impact additional products.

Risk Assessment

The risk to the organization is the potential takeover of Java SE, which could lead to the execution of malicious code in client environments, especially in Java Web Start applications or Java applets.

Recommendation

It is recommended to update to the latest versions of Java SE and to restrict the execution of untrusted code in client environments.

Original NVD description (English source)

Vulnerability in the Java SE component of Oracle Java SE (subcomponent: JavaFX). Supported versions that are affected are Java SE: 7u141 and 8u131. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Java SE. Successful attacks require human interaction from a person other than the attacker and while the vulnerability is in Java SE, attacks may significantly impact additional products. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in takeover of Java SE. Note: This vulnerability applies to Java deployments, typically in clients running sandboxed Java Web Start applications or sandboxed Java applets, that load and run untrusted code (e.g., code that comes from the internet) and rely on the Java sandbox for security. This vulnerability does not apply to Java deployments, typically in servers, that load and run only trusted code (e.g., code installed by an administrator). CVSS 3.0 Base Score 9.6 (Confidentiality,
