DescriptionCVE.org

Vulnerability in Oracle Java SE (component: Scripting). Supported versions that are affected are Oracle Java SE: 8u491, 8u491-perf and 11.0.31. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Oracle Java SE. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized ability to cause a hang or frequently repeatable crash (complete DOS) of Oracle Java SE. Note: This vulnerability can be exploited by using APIs in the specified Component, e.g., through a web service which supplies data to the APIs. This vulnerability also applies to Java deployments, typically in clients running sandboxed Java Web Start applications or sandboxed Java applets, that load and run untrusted code (e.g., code that comes from the internet) and rely on the Java sandbox for security. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 7.5 (Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H).

AnalysisAI

Denial-of-service in Oracle Java SE 8u491 (and 8u491-perf) and 11.0.31 lets an unauthenticated remote attacker hang or repeatedly crash the JVM by feeding crafted input to the Scripting component's APIs, for example via a web service that passes data to those APIs. There is no confidentiality or integrity impact - only availability - but the attack is network-reachable, low-complexity, and requires no authentication or user interaction, yielding a CVSS 7.5. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires that the target Java application actually exposes the Scripting component (JSR-223 / Nashorn) APIs to attacker-influenced data - Oracle specifies this occurs 'by using APIs in the specified Component, e.g., through a web service which supplies data to the APIs,' so a reachable code path that feeds untrusted input into javax.script is the concrete prerequisite. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 3.1 vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H describes an easily reachable, unauthenticated, network-triggerable availability-only flaw - a genuine DoS priority for any Java service that exposes the Scripting APIs to untrusted input, but strictly limited to availability (no C or I impact). … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker identifies a network-facing Java web service that forwards request data into the Scripting component's APIs and submits crafted input designed to drive the JVM into an unrecoverable hang or repeatable crash. Because the attack needs no authentication, no user interaction, and low complexity, a single or small number of malicious requests can take the service completely offline (complete DOS). …
Remediation Apply the fixed Oracle Java SE builds delivered in the July 2026 Critical Patch Update (https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cpujul2026.html); the input data does not enumerate an exact fixed build number, so treat this as patch available per vendor advisory and pull the specific patched 8u and 11.0.x release listed in that CPU rather than an invented version. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, complete a complete inventory of all systems running Oracle Java SE 8u491 or 11.0.31-particularly production web services, API endpoints, and Scripting API consumers-and document network exposure (internet-facing, internal network, or isolated). …
