ABRT might allow attackers to obtain sensitive information from crash reports.

An input validation flaw was found in the URL class implementation in the Networking component of OpenJDK. A URL class instance could have been created for a URL string containing invalid characters not permitted in URLs.

An infinite loop flaw was found in the RIFF (Resource Interchange File Format) file format reader in the Sound component of OpenJDK. A specially crafted RIFF file could cause a Java application to enter an infinite loop while reading the RIFF file.

It was discovered that the implementation of the Throwable class in the Utilities component of OpenJDK did not sufficiently validate serial stream before deserializing suppressed exceptions. A specially-crafted input could cause a Java application to construct inconsistent object and possibly use an excessive amount of system resources when deserialized.

It was discovered that the implementation of the Collections class in the Utilities component of OpenJDK did not limit the amount of memory allocated when creating object instance from a serialized form. A specially-crafted input could cause a Java application to use an excessive amount of memory when deserialized.

It was discovered that the AccessController class implementation in the Security component of OpenJDK failed, in certain cases, to consider the current context and correctly restrict privileges based on it. An untrusted Java application or applet could use this flaw to bypass certain Java sandbox restrictions.

A certificate verification flaw was found in the JSSE component of OpenJDK. No check was preformed during the TLS session resumption to ensure that the same endpoint identification algorithm had been used when originally opening the session as was required when resuming the session. In certain cases, this could lead to having TLS connection established without required server identity verification.

Multiple vulnerabilities in the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) component in Oracle Java SE 7 Update 6 and earlier allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted applet that bypasses SecurityManager restrictions by (1) using com.sun.beans.finder.ClassFinder.findClass and leveraging an exception with the forName method to access restricted classes from arbitrary packages such as sun.awt.SunToolkit, then (2) using "reflection with a trusted immediate caller" to leverage the getField method to access and modify private fields, as exploited in the wild in August 2012 using Gondzz.class and Gondvv.class.

A vulnerability was discovered in Tomcat where if a servlet context was configured with readonly=false and HTTP PUT requests were allowed, an attacker could upload a JSP file to that context and achieve code execution.

Unspecified vulnerability in the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) component in Oracle Java SE 7 update 4 and earlier, 6 update 32 and earlier, 5 update 35 and earlier, and 1.4.237 and earlier allows remote attackers to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability via unknown vectors related to Hotspot.

inftrees.c in zlib 1.2.8 might allow context-dependent attackers to have unspecified impact by leveraging improper pointer arithmetic

Last updated 11 July 2025

An old inffast.c optimization turns out to not be optimal anymore with modern compilers, and furthermore was not compliant with the C standard, for which decrementing a pointer before its allocated memory is undefined.

A missing bounds check was found in the way OpenSSL handled TLS heartbeat extension packets. This flaw could be used to reveal up to 64k of memory from a connected client or server.

Only 1.0.1 releases of OpenSSL are affected including 1.0.1f (and 1.0.2 betas)

The following upstream commit introduced TLS/DTLS heatbeat support and also this issue:

http://git.openssl.org/gitweb/?p=openssl.git;a=commitdiff;h=4817504

A vulnerability was found in OpenSSL 1.0.2. When an application encounters a fatal protocol error and then calls SSLshutdown() twice, OpenSSL can respond differently to the calling application if a 0 byte record is received with invalid padding compared to if a 0 byte record is received with an invalid MAC. This difference in behaviour can be detected by a remote peer, then this amounts to a padding oracle that could be used to decrypt data. In order for this to be exploitable "non-stitched" ciphersuites must be in use. Also the application must call SSLshutdown() twice even if a protocol error has occurred (applications should not do this but some do anyway). AEAD ciphersuites are not impacted. This issue does not impact OpenSSL 1.1.1 or 1.1.0.

Withdrawn Advisory This advisory has been withdrawn because the vulnerability only affects the Qpid Proton C library and not org.apache.qpid:proton-j. This link has been maintained to preserve external references.

Original Description

While investigating bug PROTON-2014, we discovered that under some circumstances Apache Qpid Proton versions 0.9 to 0.27.0 (C library and its language bindings) can connect to a peer anonymously using TLS even when configured to verify the peer certificate while used with OpenSSL versions before 1.1.0. This means that an undetected man in the middle attack could be constructed if an attacker can arrange to intercept TLS traffic.

A flaw was found in the bash functionality that evaluates specially formatted environment variables passed to it from another environment. An attacker could use this feature to override or bypass restrictions to the environment to execute shell commands before restrictions have been applied. Certain services and applications allow remote unauthenticated attackers to provide environment variables, allowing them to exploit this issue.

It was discovered that the JNDI comment of OpenJDK did not properly enforce the restriction controlled by the com.sun.jndi.ldap.object.trustURLCodebase system property. In certain cases, a Java LDAP client could unexpectedly load and execute code form an LDAP server.

It was found that the raw midi kernel driver does not protect against concurrent access which leads to a double realloc (double free) in sndrawmidiinputparams() and sndrawmidioutputstatus() which are part of sndrawmidiioctl() handler in rawmidi.c file. A malicious local attacker could possibly use this for privilege escalation.

An attacker able to send and receive messages to an authoritative DNS server may be able to circumvent TSIG authentication of AXFR requests via a carefully constructed request packet. A server that relies solely on TSIG keys for protection with no other ACL protection could be manipulated into:

providing an AXFR of a zone to an unauthorized recipient accepting bogus Notify packets

An unauthorized AXFR (full zone transfer) permits an attacker to view the entire contents of a zone. Protection of zone contents is often a commercial or business requirement.

If accepted, a Notify sets the zone refresh interval to 'now'. If there is not already a refresh cycle in progress then named will initiate one by asking for the SOA RR from its list of masters. If there is already a refresh cycle in progress, then named will queue the new refresh request. If there is already a queued refresh request, the new Notify will be discarded. Bogus notifications can't be used to force a zone transfer from a malicious server, but could trigger a high rate of zone refresh cycles.

Workarounds:

The effects of this vulnerability can be mitigated by using Access Control Lists (ACLs) that require both address range validation and use of TSIG authentication in parallel. For information on how to configure this type of compound authentication control, please see:

https://kb.isc.org/article/AA-00723/0/Using-Access-Control-Lists-ACLs-with-both-addresses-and-keys.html.

(Note that this technique will not be effective against bogus Notify packets if an attacker is able to reach the target DNS server whilst using a spoofed sending address).
