Summary

Vulnerability in the Java plugin component of Oracle Java SE (versions 8u503 and 8u503-perf). A low privileged attacker with local logon can gain unauthorized creation, deletion or modification access to critical data and full access to Java SE data; exploitation is difficult and impact may extend beyond Java SE (scope change). Applies to clients running untrusted code in the sandbox (e.g., applets, Web Start). CVSS 7.5.

Risk Assessment

Potential compromise of confidentiality and integrity of data and related systems if users run untrusted Java code in browsers or clients.

Recommendation

Apply the Oracle Critical Patch Update for Java SE 8u503 and 8u503-perf, and disable or restrict execution of untrusted applets and Web Start applications.

Original NVD description (English source)

Vulnerability in Oracle Java SE (component: Java plugin). Supported versions that are affected are Oracle Java SE: 8u503 and 8u503-perf. Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with logon to the infrastructure where Oracle Java SE executes to compromise Oracle Java SE. While the vulnerability is in Oracle Java SE, attacks may significantly impact additional products (scope change). Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized creation, deletion or modification access to critical data or all Oracle Java SE accessible data as well as unauthorized access to critical data or complete access to all 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 7.5 (Confidentiality and Integrity impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:N).
