CVE-2016-3443: Unspecified vulnerability in Oracle Java SE 6u113, 7u99, and 8u77 allows remote attackers to affect confidentiality, integrity, and…

CriticalCVSS 9.6 · v3.0—No exploit Fix available

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Plan (action score 40/100)

  • The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 5.4% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 92.8% of all records.
  • Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. A user must open a link or visit a page. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
  • Fixed version: java-1.7.1-ibm (Red Hat:network_satellite:5.6::el6) 1:1.7.1.4.1-1jpp.1.el6_8; java-1.7.1-ibm-devel (Red Hat:network_satellite:5.6::el6) 1:1.7.1.4.1-1jpp.1.el6_8; java-1.6.0-sun (Red Hat:rhel_extras_oracle_java:5) 1:1.6.0.115-1jpp.1.el5_11.

Add it to your regular patch cycle. Upgrade to java-1.7.1-ibm (Red Hat:network_satellite:5.6::el6) 1:1.7.1.4.1-1jpp.1.el6_8; java-1.7.1-ibm-devel (Red Hat:network_satellite:5.6::el6) 1:1.7.1.4.1-1jpp.1.el6_8; java-1.6.0-sun (Red Hat:rhel_extras_oracle_java:5) 1:1.6.0.115-1jpp.1.el5_11 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

Unspecified vulnerability in Oracle Java SE 6u113, 7u99, and 8u77 allows remote attackers to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability via vectors related to 2D. NOTE: the previous information is from the April 2016 CPU. Oracle has not commented on third-party claims that this issue allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information via crafted font data, which triggers an out-of-bounds read.
