Description

Unspecified vulnerability in the Java Runtime Environment component in Oracle Java SE JDK and JRE 7 and 6 Update 27 and earlier allows remote untrusted Java Web Start applications and untrusted Java applets to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability via unknown vectors related to Scripting.

Analysis

Oracle Java SE JDK/JRE 7 and 6 Update 27 and earlier contain an unspecified vulnerability in the Scripting component that allows untrusted Java applets to bypass the security sandbox for full system compromise.

Technical Context

The CWE-284 access control flaw in Java's scripting engine allows malicious applets to escape the sandbox through the Rhino/Nashorn scripting interface. Once outside the sandbox, the applet has full access to the underlying operating system.

Affected Products

['Oracle Java SE JDK/JRE 7', 'Oracle Java SE JDK/JRE 6 Update 27 and earlier']

Remediation

Update Java to the latest version. Disable Java browser plugins entirely. Modern browsers no longer support Java applets (NPAPI deprecated).
