CVE-2017-10110: Oracle Corporation Java vulnerability

CVE-2017-10110: Vulnerability in the Java SE component of Oracle Java SE (subcomponent: AWT).

Vulnerability in the Java SE component of Oracle Java SE (subcomponent: AWT). Supported versions that are affected are Java SE: 6u151, 7u141 and 8u131. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Java SE. Successful attacks require human interaction from a person other than the attacker and while the vulnerability is in Java SE, attacks may significantly impact additional products. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in takeover of Java SE. Note: This vulnerability applies to Java deployments, typically in clients running sandboxed Java Web Start applications or sandboxed Java applets, that load and run untrusted code (e.g., code that comes from the internet) and rely on the Java sandbox for security. This vulnerability does not apply to Java deployments, typically in servers, that load and run only trusted code (e.g., code installed by an administrator). CVSS 3.0 Base Score 9.6 (Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H).

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2017-10110 is a high-impact Oracle Java SE AWT vulnerability. An attacker could compromise Java SE if a user runs untrusted sandboxed Java content, such as a Java Web Start application or applet from the internet. The source bundle says successful exploitation can result in Java SE takeover. Exposure is most likely on endpoints or application environments that still allow Java Web Start, Java applets, or other untrusted sandboxed Java content. Server-side Java deployments running only trusted administrator-installed code are explicitly described as not affected by this vulnerability pattern. Treat this as urgent for legacy client Java estates because the stated outcome is full Java SE takeover. Priority is lower for server-only trusted-code deployments, but old Java versions should still be removed or updated as an operational risk. Mitigation focus: Apply Oracle or operating-system vendor Java security updates from the cited advisories.; Remove or disable Java applet and Java Web Start support where not required.; Block execution of untrusted Java content from internet sources..
