Vulnerability in the Java SE, Java SE Embedded, JRockit component of Oracle Java SE (subcomponent: Serialization). Supported versions that are affected are Java SE: 6u151, 7u141 and 8u131; Java SE Embedded: 8u131; JRockit: R28.3.14. 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: 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).

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2017-10108 is an Oracle Java serialization flaw that can let an unauthenticated network attacker cause partial denial of service. It affects older Java SE, Java SE Embedded, and JRockit versions. The business impact is availability disruption, not confirmed data theft or code execution in the provided sources. Exposure is most likely where affected Java runtimes process untrusted serialized data, including web services, sandboxed Java Web Start applications, or sandboxed applets. Confirmed affected versions are Java SE 6u151, 7u141, 8u131; Java SE Embedded 8u131; and JRockit R28.3.14. Treat this as a moderate availability risk. It should be remediated through standard vulnerability management, with higher priority for internet-facing or business-critical Java services that process untrusted data. The provided evidence does not support emergency action for active exploitation. Mitigation focus: Inventory Java SE, Java SE Embedded, and JRockit versions across servers and applications.; Follow Oracle CPU July 2017 and applicable vendor advisories for supported updates.; Prioritize systems processing untrusted serialized data or exposed Java service endpoints..
