Descriptions

Vulnerability in the Java SE, Java SE Embedded, JRockit component of Oracle Java SE (subcomponent: AWT). Supported versions that are affected are Java SE: 6u181, 7u171, 8u162 and 10; Java SE Embedded: 8u161; JRockit: R28.3.17. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Java SE, Java SE Embedded, JRockit. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized ability to cause a partial denial of service (partial DOS) of Java SE, Java SE Embedded, JRockit. Note: Applies to client and server deployment of Java. This vulnerability can be exploited through sandboxed Java Web Start applications and sandboxed Java applets. It can also be exploited by supplying data to APIs in the specified Component without using sandboxed Java Web Start applications or sandboxed Java applets, such as through a web service. CVSS 3.0 Base Score 5.3 (Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L).

Vulnerabilidad en los componentes Java SE, Java SE Embedded y JRockit de Oracle Java SE (subcomponente: AWT). Las versiones compatibles que se han visto afectadas son JavaSE: 6u181, 7u171, 8u162 y 10; Java SE Embedded: 8u161; JRockit: R28.3.17. Una vulnerabilidad fácilmente explotable permite que un atacante sin autenticar que tenga acceso a red por HTTP comprometa la seguridad de Java SE, Java SE Embedded y JRockit. Los ataques exitosos a esta vulnerabilidad pueden dar lugar a que el atacante consiga provocar una denegación de servicio parcial (DoS parcial) de Java SE, Java SE Embedded y JRockit. Nota: Esta vulnerabilidad aplica a la implementación del cliente y el servidor de Java. Esta vulnerabilidad puede ser explotada mediante aplicaciones Java Web Start en sandbox y applets Java en sandbox. También puede ser explotada proporcionando datos a las API en los componentes especificados sin emplear aplicaciones Java Web Start o applets Java en sandbox, como a través de un servicio web. CVSS 3.0 Base Score 5.3 (impactos en la disponibilidad). Vector CVSS: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L).
