Frequently Asked Questions

1

Which deployments are exposed to remote exploitation?

An unauthenticated attacker with network access can exploit the issue through multiple protocols when an affected deployment exposes or supplies attacker-controlled data to the vulnerable Security component APIs, such as through a web service. Client deployments running sandboxed Java Web Start applications or sandboxed Java applets are also identified as affected.

2

Is authentication or user interaction required?

No. The CVSS vector specifies no privileges required and no user interaction, and the description states that an unauthenticated attacker can exploit the vulnerability over the network.

3

What impact can successful exploitation have?

Successful exploitation can allow unauthorized update, insert, or delete operations on some accessible data, along with unauthorized read access to a subset of accessible data. The stated CVSS vector indicates low confidentiality and integrity impact, with no availability impact.

4

Which released versions are listed as affected?

Affected Oracle Java SE versions are 8u503, 8u503-perf, 11.0.32.1, 17.0.20.1, 21.0.12.1, 25.0.4.1, and 27. Affected Oracle GraalVM for JDK versions are 17.0.20.1 and 21.0.12.1; affected Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition is 21.3.19.1.1.
