CriticalMetricsAV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Eclipse Openj9 versions prior to 0.29.0
Description
The issue is related to the JVM not throwing IllegalAccessError for MethodHandles that invoke inaccessible interface methods. This could potentially allow an attacker to obtain sensitive information, resulting in a low confidentiality impact.
Recommendations
For Eclipse Openj9 versions prior to 0.29.0, update to version 0.29.0 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to MethodHandles that invoke interface methods to minimize the risk of exploitation.
