DESCRIPTION:
Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in Oracle Java SE, which
can be exploited by malicious people to disclose potentially
sensitive information, manipulate certain data, cause a DoS (Denial
of Service), and compromise a vulnerable system.
1) An error in the 2D component may allow execution of arbitrary code
in a client and server deployment via e.g untrusted applets or data
sent to APIs through a web service.
2) Another error in the 2D component may allow execution of arbitrary
code in a client and server deployment via e.g untrusted applets or
data sent to APIs through a web service.
3) Another error in the 2D component may allow execution of arbitrary
code in a client and server deployment via e.g untrusted applets or
data sent to APIs through a web service.
4) An error in the Deployment component may allow execution of
arbitrary code in a client deployment via e.g untrusted Web Start
applications or untrusted applets.
5) An error in the JavaFX component may allow execution of arbitrary
code in a client deployment.
6) An error in the Install component may allow execution of arbitrary
code in a client deployment via the update mechanism.
This may be related to:
SA47134
7) An error in the Concurrency component can be exploited to disclose
and manipulate certain data and to cause a DoS in a client deployment
via e.g. untrusted Web Start applications or untrusted applets.
8) An error in the I18n component can be exploited to disclose and
manipulate certain data and to cause a DoS in a client deployment via
e.g. untrusted Web Start applications or untrusted applets.
9) An error in the Serialization component can be exploited to
disclose and manipulate certain data and to cause a DoS in a client
deployment via e.g. untrusted Web Start applications or untrusted
applets.
10) An error in the AWT component can be exploited to disclose
certain data and cause a DoS in a client deployment via e.g.
untrusted Web Start applications or untrusted applets.
11) An error in the Sound component can be exploited to disclose
certain data and cause a DoS in a client deployment via e.g.
untrusted Web Start applications or untrusted applets.
12) An error in the Lightweight HTTP Server can be exploited to cause
a DoS.
For more information:
SA47819
13) An error in the Java Runtime Environment component can be
exploited to cause a DoS in a client and server deployment via e.g
untrusted applets or data sent to APIs through a web service.
14) An error in the CORBA component can be exploited to manipulate
certain data in a client deployment via e.g. untrusted Web Start
applications or untrusted applets.
SOLUTION:
Apply patches (please see the vendor's advisory for more
information).
PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
It is currently unclear who reported the vulnerabilities as the
Oracle Java SE Critical Patch Update for February 2012 only provides
a bundled list of credits. This section will be updated when/if the
original reporter provides more information.
