CVE-2019-11775: All builds of Eclipse OpenJ9 prior to 0.15 contain a bug where the loop versioner may fail to privatize a value that is pulled out of the lo

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 29/100)

  • 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: 1.4% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 73.5% of all records.
  • Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. No user action is required. Special conditions such as timing or configuration are required.
  • Fixed version: java-1.8.0-ibm (Red Hat:enterprise_linux:8::supplementary) 1:1.8.0.5.40-3.el8_0; java-1.8.0-ibm-demo (Red Hat:enterprise_linux:8::supplementary) 1:1.8.0.5.40-3.el8_0; java-1.8.0-ibm-devel (Red Hat:enterprise_linux:8::supplementary) 1:1.8.0.5.40-3.el8_0.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to java-1.8.0-ibm (Red Hat:enterprise_linux:8::supplementary) 1:1.8.0.5.40-3.el8_0; java-1.8.0-ibm-demo (Red Hat:enterprise_linux:8::supplementary) 1:1.8.0.5.40-3.el8_0; java-1.8.0-ibm-devel (Red Hat:enterprise_linux:8::supplementary) 1:1.8.0.5.40-3.el8_0 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

All builds of Eclipse OpenJ9 prior to 0.15 contain a bug where the loop versioner may fail to privatize a value that is pulled out of the loop by versioning - for example if there is a condition that is moved out of the loop that reads a field we may not privatize the value of that field in the modified copy of the loop allowing the test to see one value of the field and subsequently the loop to see a modified field value without retesting the condition moved out of the loop. This can lead to a variety of different issues but read out of array bounds is one major consequence of these problems.

Exploit status

No known public exploit

No public exploit has been observed yet. That doesn't mean you're safe, only that the bar is a little higher.

Research context

For pentesters and researchers: attack profile, score disagreement, timeline, patch commits, credits, variant and chain candidates, bug bounty scope. All derived from existing data; no exploit code.

Timeline

From publication to today: proof of concept, Metasploit module, CISA KEV and fix record. Dates are as reported by the sources.

No dated events beyond publication.

EPSS, last 120 days

FIRST EPSS daily score; only changes of 0.01 or more are recorded (step chart).

Patch and commit links

Commit, PR and diff links among the references. A starting point for patch-diffing and variant hunting; fixes, not exploits.

No commit or PR link among the references.

No credits in the CNA record.

Variant candidates

Same product, same weakness class, within 18 months. If the patch missed the root cause, the sibling bug is here.

No nightly-computed relations.

Chain candidates

An authentication bypass and a privilege-requiring bug in the same product, published close together: combined they may become an unauthenticated path.
