CVE-2017-3289

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Java SE versions 7u121 and 8u112 Java SE Embedded version 8u111

Description The issue allows an unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Java SE and Java SE Embedded, requiring human interaction from a person other than the attacker. Successful attacks may significantly impact additional products and can result in the takeover of Java SE and Java SE Embedded. This issue applies to Java deployments that load and run untrusted code, such as sandboxed Java Web Start applications or sandboxed Java applets, and rely on the Java sandbox for security.

Recommendations For Java SE version 7u121, update to a version that contains a fix for this issue. For Java SE version 8u112, update to a version that contains a fix for this issue. For Java SE Embedded version 8u111, update to a version that contains a fix for this issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of untrusted code in Java deployments to minimize the risk of exploitation.
