Security readout for executives and security teams
CVE-2017-10042 is a denial-of-service flaw in the IKE component of Oracle Solaris 10 and 11. An unauthenticated attacker with network access to IKE could cause Solaris to hang or repeatedly crash, disrupting systems that depend on affected Solaris hosts. Exposure is most likely where Oracle Solaris 10 or 11 systems run IKE services reachable from untrusted or broad networks. Systems not using IKE or not reachable over the relevant network path have lower practical exposure, but version and service state must be verified. Treat this as high priority for any internet-facing or partner-facing Solaris IKE service because the likely business impact is outage, not data theft. Patch or isolate exposed systems, then address internal-only systems according to operational criticality. Mitigation focus: Review Oracle's July 2017 Critical Patch Update guidance for Solaris.; Apply vendor-approved Solaris updates for affected supported systems.; Restrict unnecessary network access to IKE services..
