Description

This security bulletin contains information about 11 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Security restrictions bypass (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-2790)

The vulnerability allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to write arbitrary files on the target system.

The weakness exists in the Java SE, Java SE Embedded, JRockit component of Oracle Java SE due to improper security restrictions. A remote attacker can trick the victim into opening a specially crafted file and update, insert or delete some of Java SE, Java SE Embedded accessible data.

2) Privilege escalation (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-2794)

The vulnerability allows a local unauthenticated attacker to gain elevated privileges on the target system.

The weakness exists in the Java SE, JRockit component of Oracle Java SE due to improper security restrictions. A local attacker can execute arbitrary code.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may result in system compromise.

3) Security restrictions bypass (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-2795)

The vulnerability allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.

The weakness exists in the Java SE, Java SE Embedded, JRockit component of Oracle Java SE due to improper security restrictions. A remote attacker can partially cause the service to crash.

4) Security restrictions bypass (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-2796)

The vulnerability allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.

The weakness exists in the Java SE, Java SE Embedded, JRockit component of Oracle Java SE due to improper security restrictions. A remote attacker can partially cause the service to crash.

5) Security restrictions bypass (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-2797)

The vulnerability allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.

The weakness exists in the Java SE, Java SE Embedded, JRockit component of Oracle Java SE due to improper security restrictions. A remote attacker can partially cause the service to crash.

6) Security restrictions bypass (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-2798)

The vulnerability allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.

The weakness exists in the Java SE, Java SE Embedded, JRockit component of Oracle Java SE due to improper security restrictions. A remote attacker can partially cause the service to crash.

7) Security restrictions bypass (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-2799)

The vulnerability allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.

The weakness exists in the Java SE, Java SE Embedded, JRockit component of Oracle Java SE due to improper security restrictions. A remote attacker can partially cause the service to crash.

8) Security restrictions bypass (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-2800)

The vulnerability allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to obtain potentially sensitive information and write arbitrary files on the target system.

The weakness exists in the Java SE, JRockit component of Oracle Java SE due to improper security restrictions. A remote attacker can trick the victim into opening a specially crafted file, update, insert or delete some of Java SE, JRockit accessible data and gain unauthorized read access to a subset of Java SE, JRockit accessible data.

9) Privilege escalation (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-2811)

The vulnerability allows a local unauthenticated attacker to gain elevated privileges on the target system.

The weakness exists in the Java SE component of Oracle Java SE due to improper security restrictions. A local attacker can execute arbitrary code.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may result in system compromise.

10) Security restrictions bypass (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-2814)

The vulnerability allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The weakness exists in the Java SE, Java SE Embedded component of Oracle Java SE due to improper security restrictions. A remote attacker can trick the victim into opening a specially crafted file and execute arbitrary code.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may result in system compromise.

11) Security restrictions bypass (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-2815)

The vulnerability allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.

The weakness exists in the Java SE, Java SE Embedded, JRockit component of Oracle Java SE due to improper security restrictions. A remote attacker can partially cause the service to crash.
