A malformed query response received by a recursive server in response to a query of RTYPE ANY could trigger an assertion failure while named is attempting to add the RRs in the query response to the cache. While the combination of properties which triggers the assertion should not occur in normal traffic, it is potentially possible for the assertion to be triggered deliberately by an attacker sending a specially-constructed answer having the required properties, after having engineered a scenario whereby an ANY query is sent to the recursive server for the target QNAME. A recursive server will itself only send a query of type ANY if it receives a client query of type ANY for a QNAME for which it has no RRsets at all in cache, otherwise it will respond to the client with the the RRsets that it has available.

This vulnerability occurs during the processing of an answer packet received in response to a query. As a result, recursive servers are at the greatest risk; authoritative servers are at risk only to the extent that they perform a limited set of queries.

The fix for this issue adds the following packages to the package.access security property, which defines the list of restricted internal packages not accessible to untrusted code:

com.sun.org.apache.xml.internal.resolver.helpers. com.sun.org.apache.xml.internal.resolver.readers.

It was discovered that the DCG (Distributed Garbage Collector) implementation in the RMI component of OpenJDK failed to correctly handle references. A remote attacker could possibly use this flaw to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of RMI registry or a Java RMI application.

It was discovered that the implementation of the ActivationID class in the RMI component of OpenJDK failed to properly perform access control checks. An untrusted Java application or applet could use this flaw to bypass Java sandbox restrictions.

It was discovered that the implementation of the BasicAttribute class in OpenJDK did not limit the amount of memory allocated when creating object instance from a serialized form. A specially-crafted serialized input stream could cause JVM to consume an excessive amount of memory.

It was discovered that the implementation of the CodeSource class in OpenJDK did not limit the amount of memory allocated when creating object instance from a serialized form. An untrusted Java application or applet could use this flaw to cause JVM to allocate an excessive amount of memory, bypassing certain Java sandbox restrictions.

It was discovered that the implementation of the ImageWatched class in the AWT component of OpenJDK failed to properly perform access control checks. An untrusted Java application or applet could use this flaw to bypass Java sandbox restrictions.

It was discovered that the LambdaFormEditor class in the Libraries component of OpenJDK did not correctly perform bounds checks in the permuteArgumentsForm() function. An untrusted Java application or applet could use this flaw to corrupt JVM memory and cause it to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code, bypassing Java sandbox restrictions. The problem is triggered when using MethodHandle.permuteArguments().

A covert timing channel flaw was found in the DSA implementation in the JCE component of OpenJDK. A remote attacker able to make a Java application generate DSA signatures on demand could possibly use this flaw to extract certain information about the used key via a timing side channel.

Note that the fix for this issue reverts the fix for CVE-2016-5548 (see bug 1413920) and uses different approach to implement blinding of the DSA operations.

It was discovered that the LDAPCertStore class in the Security component of OpenJDK followed LDAP referrals to arbitrary URLs. A specially-crafted LDAP referral URL could cause LDAPCertStore to communicate with non-LDAP servers.

A covert timing channel flaw was found in the PKCS#8 implementation in the JCE component of OpenJDK. A remote attacker able to make a Java application repeatedly compared PKCS#8 key against an attacker controlled value could possibly use this flaw to determine the key via a timing side channel.

A flaw was found in the DisabledAlgorithmConstraints class in the Security component of OpenJDK. A key size constrained could not have been checked correctly in certain cases, causing weak key to be accepted. An untrusted Java application or applet could use this flaw to bypass certain Java sandbox restrictions.

It was discovered that the Security component of OpenJDK could fail to properly enforce restrictions (specified using the jdk.certpath.disabledAlgorithms security property) defined for processing of X.509 certificate chains. A remote attacker could possibly use this flaw to make Java accept certificate using one of the disabled algorithms.

Oracle Java SE 6u161, 7u151, and 8u141 fixes an unspecified vulnerability in the JAX-WS component (CVE-2017-10243). Upstream has CVSS scored this issue as: 6.5/CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:L
