Date:  Jun 8 2011
Impact:   Denial of service via network, Disclosure of user information, Execution of arbitrary code via network, Modification of user information, User access via network
Fix Available:  Yes  Vendor Confirmed:  Yes  
Version(s): JDK and JRE 6 Update 25 and prior; JDK and JRE 5.0 Update 29 and prior; SDK and JRE 1.4.2_31 and prior
Description:   Multiple vulnerabilities were reported in Java Runtime Environment (JRE). A remote user can cause arbitrary code to be executed on the target user's system.

A remote user can create a specially crafted Java applet or Java Web Start application that, when loaded by the target user, will access or modify data on the target user's system or execute arbitrary code on the target user's system. The code will run with the privileges of the target user.

The 2D [CVE-2011-0862, CVE-2011-0868, CVE-2011-0873], AWT [CVE-2011-0815], Deployment [CVE-2011-0786, CVE-2011-0788, CVE-2011-0817, CVE-2011-0863], HotSpot [CVE-2011-0864], Sound [CVE-2011-0802, CVE-2011-0814], Swing [CVE-2011-0871], JRE [CVE-2011-0866], Networking [CVE-2011-0867], SAAJ [CVE-2011-0869], and Deserialization [CVE-2011-0865] components are affected.

A remote user can supply specially crafted data to an API to cause partial denial of service conditions. The NIO component is affected [CVE-2011-0872].

An Anonymous Reporter of TippingPoint's Zero Day Initiative; binaryproof via iDefense; binaryproof via Tipping Point; Chris Ries via Tipping Point; Hisashi Kojima of Fujitsu Laboratories via JPCERT/CC; iDefense; Marc Schoenefeld of Red Hat; Peter Vreugdenhil of TippingPoint DVLabs; and Stephen Fewer of Harmony Security via Tippingpoint reported these vulnerabilities.
Impact:   A remote user can create a Java applet or Java Web Start application that, when loaded by the target user, will access or modify data or execute arbitrary code on the target user's system.

A remote user can cause partial denial of service conditions on the target system.
Solution:   Red Hat has issued a fix for java-1.6.0-openjdk for CVE-2011-0862, CVE-2011-0864, CVE-2011-0865, CVE-2011-0867, CVE-2011-0868, CVE-2011-0869, and CVE-2011-0871.

=====================================================================

1. Summary:

Updated java-1.6.0-openjdk packages that fix several 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, x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux HPC Node (v. 6) - x86_64

Red Hat Enterprise Linux Workstation Optional (v. 6) - i386, x86_64

3. Description:

These packages provide the OpenJDK 6 Java Runtime Environment and the
OpenJDK 6 Software Development Kit.

Integer overflow flaws were found in the way Java2D parsed JPEG images and
user-supplied fonts. An attacker could use these flaws to execute arbitrary
code with the privileges of the user running an untrusted applet or
application. (CVE-2011-0862)

It was found that the MediaTracker implementation created Component
instances with unnecessary access privileges. A remote attacker could use
this flaw to elevate their privileges by utilizing an untrusted applet or
application that uses Swing. (CVE-2011-0871)

A flaw was found in the HotSpot component in OpenJDK. Certain bytecode
instructions confused the memory management within the Java Virtual Machine
(JVM), resulting in an applet or application crashing. (CVE-2011-0864)

An information leak flaw was found in the NetworkInterface class. An
untrusted applet or application could use this flaw to access information
about available network interfaces that should only be available to
privileged code. (CVE-2011-0867)

An incorrect float-to-long conversion, leading to an overflow, was found
in the way certain objects (such as images and text) were transformed in
Java2D. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash an untrusted applet
or application that uses Java2D. (CVE-2011-0868)

It was found that untrusted applets and applications could misuse a SOAP
connection to incorrectly set global HTTP proxy settings instead of
setting them in a local scope. This flaw could be used to intercept HTTP
requests. (CVE-2011-0869)

A flaw was found in the way signed objects were deserialized. If trusted
and untrusted code were running in the same Java Virtual Machine (JVM), and
both were deserializing the same signed object, the untrusted code could
modify said object by using this flaw to bypass the validation checks on
signed objects. (CVE-2011-0865)

All users of java-1.6.0-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.

4. Solution:

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/kb/docs/DOC-11259
