Descriptions
Unspecified vulnerability in Oracle Java SE 6u105, 7u91, and 8u66; Java SE Embedded 8u65; and JRockit R28.3.8 allows remote attackers to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability via vectors related to AWT. NOTE: the previous information is from the January 2016 CPU. Oracle has not commented on third-party claims that this is a heap-based buffer overflow in the readImage function, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted image data.
Vulnerabilidad no especificada en Oracle Java SE 6u105, 7u91 y 8u66; Java SE Embedded 8u65; y JRockit R28.3.8 permite a atacantes remotos afectar a la confidencialidad, la integridad y la disponibilidad a través de vectores relacionados con AWT. NOTA: la información anterior es de la CPU de Enero de 2016. Oracle no ha comentado sobre las reclamaciones de terceros que esto es desbordamiento de buffer basado en memoria dinámica en la función readImage, lo que permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar código arbitrario a través de datos de imagen manipulada.
An out-of-bounds write flaw was found in the JPEG image format decoder in the AWT component in OpenJDK. A specially crafted JPEG image could cause a Java application to crash or, possibly execute arbitrary code. An untrusted Java application or applet could use this flaw to bypass Java sandbox restrictions.
This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Oracle Java. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file.
The specific flaw exists within the handling of image data. The issue lies in insufficient validation of supplied image data inside the native function readImage. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code under the context of the current process.
