CVE-2017-10090

Critical
Published: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

A vulnerability in the Java SE and Java SE Embedded components allows easy exploitation by an unauthenticated attacker with network access. It requires human interaction, which may lead to the takeover of Java SE and Java SE Embedded.

Risk Assessment

Attacks can significantly impact additional products, and their consequences can be severe, especially in environments where untrusted Java applications are run.

Recommendation

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

Original NVD description (English source)

Vulnerability in the Java SE, Java SE Embedded component of Oracle Java SE (subcomponent: Libraries). Supported versions that are affected are Java SE: 7u141 and 8u131; Java SE Embedded: 8u131. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Java SE, Java SE Embedded. Successful attacks require human interaction from a person other than the attacker and while the vulnerability is in Java SE, Java SE Embedded, attacks may significantly impact additional products. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in takeover of Java SE, Java SE Embedded. 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
