MediumMetricsAV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Java SE versions 7u231, 8u221, 11.0.4, and 13
Java SE Embedded version 8u221
Description
The issue is related to the 2D component of Oracle Java SE and Java SE Embedded, allowing an unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Java SE and Java SE Embedded. Successful attacks can result in a partial denial of service. This issue applies to Java deployments that load and run untrusted code, relying on the Java sandbox for security, such as clients running sandboxed Java Web Start applications or sandboxed Java applets.
Recommendations
For Java SE versions 7u231, 8u221, 11.0.4, and 13, update to a version that contains the fix for this issue.
For Java SE Embedded version 8u221, update to a version that contains the fix for this issue.
As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to untrusted code in Java deployments to minimize the risk of exploitation.
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
