Description

Vulnerability in Oracle Java SE (component: JavaFX). The supported version that is affected is Oracle Java SE: 8u491. Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Oracle Java SE. Successful attacks require human interaction from a person other than the attacker. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized update, insert or delete access to some of Oracle Java SE accessible data. Note: This vulnerability 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. This vulnerability does not apply to Java deployments, typically in servers, that load and run only trusted code (e.g., code installed by an administrator). CVSS 3.1 Base Score 3.1 (Integrity impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N).

Executive Summary

This is a vulnerability in Oracle Java SE 8u491, specifically in the JavaFX component. It allows an unauthenticated attacker with network access to potentially modify data in Oracle Java SE if a user runs untrusted code from the internet. The attack requires user interaction and is difficult to exploit.

Detection Guidance

Detection involves checking for Oracle Java SE version 8u491 or affected deployments. Inspect installed Java versions using commands like 'java -version' or 'where java' on Windows, or 'which java' on Unix-like systems. Review applications running Java Web Start or applets that load untrusted code.

Impact Analysis

If you run Java applications that load untrusted code from the internet, an attacker could modify some data in your Java SE environment. This could lead to unauthorized changes in applications or data you rely on.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability allows unauthorized modification of data, which could impact integrity requirements in standards like GDPR (data integrity principles) and HIPAA (integrity of protected health information). However, the low CVSS score and requirement for human interaction limit its practical risk for compliance violations.

Mitigation Strategies

Upgrade Oracle Java SE to a version beyond 8u491. Disable Java Web Start and Java applets if not required. Restrict network access to Java applications and ensure only trusted code is executed. Monitor for unauthorized data changes.
