CVE-2012-5085: Unspecified vulnerability in the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) component in Oracle Java SE 7 Update 7 and earlier, 6 Update 35 and earlier…

CVSS 0.0 · v2.0—No exploit Fix available

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 1/100)

  • 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: 2.1% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 82.5% of all records.
  • Fixed version: java-1.6.0-openjdk (Red Hat:enterprise_linux:5::client) 1:1.6.0.0-1.28.1.10.10.el5_8; java-1.6.0-openjdk-debuginfo (Red Hat:enterprise_linux:5::client) 1:1.6.0.0-1.28.1.10.10.el5_8; java-1.6.0-openjdk-demo (Red Hat:enterprise_linux:5::client) 1:1.6.0.0-1.28.1.10.10.el5_8.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to java-1.6.0-openjdk (Red Hat:enterprise_linux:5::client) 1:1.6.0.0-1.28.1.10.10.el5_8; java-1.6.0-openjdk-debuginfo (Red Hat:enterprise_linux:5::client) 1:1.6.0.0-1.28.1.10.10.el5_8; java-1.6.0-openjdk-demo (Red Hat:enterprise_linux:5::client) 1:1.6.0.0-1.28.1.10.10.el5_8 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

Unspecified vulnerability in the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) component in Oracle Java SE 7 Update 7 and earlier, 6 Update 35 and earlier, 5.0 Update 36 and earlier, and 1.4.2_38 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to have an unspecified impact via unknown vectors related to Networking. NOTE: the Oracle CPU states that this issue has a 0.0 CVSS score. If so, then this is not a vulnerability and this issue should not be included in CVE.
