Synopsis
========
Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in IcedTea allowing remote
attackers to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability
through various vectors.
Background
==========
IcedTea's aim is to provide OpenJDK in a form suitable for easy
configuration, compilation and distribution with the primary goal of
allowing inclusion in GNU/Linux distributions.
Affected packages
=================
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
-------------------------------------------------------------------
1 dev-java/icedtea < 7.2.6.4 *>= 6.1.13.9
>= 7.2.6.4
2 dev-java/icedtea-bin < 7.2.6.4 *>= 6.1.13.9
>= 7.2.6.4
-------------------------------------------------------------------
2 affected packages
Description
===========
Various OpenJDK attack vectors in IcedTea, such as 2D, Corba, Hotspot,
Libraries, and JAXP, exist which allows remote attackers to affect the
confidentiality, integrity, and availability of vulnerable systems.
This includes the possibility of remote execution of arbitrary code,
information disclosure, or Denial of Service. Many of the
vulnerabilities can only be exploited through sandboxed Java Web Start
applications and java applets. Please reference the CVEs listed for
specific details.
Impact
======
Remote attackers may remotely execute arbitrary code, compromise
information, or cause Denial of Service.
Workaround
==========
There is no known work around at this time.
Resolution
==========
IcedTea 7.x users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-java/icedtea-7.2.6.4"
IcedTea bin 7.x users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-java/icedtea-bin-7.2.6.4"
IcedTea 6.x users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-java/icedtea-6.1.13.9"
