CVE-2017-3252: Vulnerability in the Java SE, Java SE Embedded, JRockit component of Oracle Java SE (subcomponent: JAAS).

Vulnerability in the Java SE, Java SE Embedded, JRockit component of Oracle Java SE (subcomponent: JAAS). Supported versions that are affected are Java SE: 6u131, 7u121 and 8u112; Java SE Embedded: 8u111; JRockit: R28.3.12. Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Java SE, Java SE Embedded, JRockit. Successful attacks require human interaction from a person other than the attacker and while the vulnerability is in Java SE, Java SE Embedded, JRockit, attacks may significantly impact additional products. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized creation, deletion or modification access to critical data or all Java SE, Java SE Embedded, JRockit accessible data. 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 v3.0 Base Score 5.8 (Integrity impacts).

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2017-3252 is an Oracle Java JAAS flaw that can let a low-privileged network attacker alter Java-accessible data. It is described as difficult to exploit and requires another person’s interaction, but the impact can extend beyond Java into products that embed or depend on affected Java runtimes. Exposure is most likely in legacy Java deployments, embedded Java products, JRockit environments, Java Web Start/applets, or server applications that pass untrusted data into affected JAAS-related APIs. Modern environments may still be exposed through bundled runtimes in third-party products. Treat as a moderate legacy-platform risk. It is not reported as actively exploited in the supplied sources, but affected Java versions are old and often embedded. Prioritize systems handling critical data, externally reachable Java services, and third-party products shipping their own Java runtime. Mitigation focus: Apply Oracle January 2017 CPU or relevant vendor Java packages.; Prioritize replacement of unsupported Java 6, Java 7, and JRockit deployments.; Disable or remove Java applets and Web Start where not business-critical..
