Description
This security bulletin contains information about 7 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Insecure DLL loading (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-1890)
The vulnerability allows a local user to elevate privilege on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to IBM SDK, Java Technology Edition Version 8 on the AIX platform uses absolute RPATHs. A local user can trigger the vulnerability to facilitate code injection and elevate privilege on the system.
2) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-12549)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to the OpenJ9 JIT compiler may incorrectly omit a null check on the receiver object of an Unsafe call when accelerating it. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and execute arbitrary code on the system.
3) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-12547)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to the jio_snprintf() and jio_vsnprintf() native methods ignored the length parameter. A remote attacker can trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
4) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-2422)
