CVE-2020-2800: Vulnerability in the Java SE, Java SE Embedded product of Oracle Java SE (component: Lightweight HTTP Server).

Vulnerability in the Java SE, Java SE Embedded product of Oracle Java SE (component: Lightweight HTTP Server). Supported versions that are affected are Java SE: 7u251, 8u241, 11.0.6 and 14; Java SE Embedded: 8u241. Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Java SE, Java SE Embedded. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized update, insert or delete access to some of Java SE, Java SE Embedded accessible data as well as unauthorized read access to a subset of Java SE, Java SE Embedded accessible data. Note: This vulnerability can only be exploited by supplying data to APIs in the specified Component without using Untrusted Java Web Start applications or Untrusted Java applets, such as through a web service. CVSS 3.0 Base Score 4.8 (Confidentiality and Integrity impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N).

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2020-2800 is a Java vulnerability in Oracle's Lightweight HTTP Server component. An unauthenticated network attacker could gain limited read and data-modification access, but Oracle rates exploitation as difficult. It matters most where affected Java runtimes support exposed web-service-style APIs. Exposure is most likely in applications or embedded systems running the listed Java versions and using the Lightweight HTTP Server component through reachable APIs, such as a web service. General Java installation alone is not enough evidence of practical exposure. Treat as a routine but time-bound patching item. It is not currently evidenced as actively exploited, but exposed Java services on affected runtimes should be prioritized because the issue is remotely reachable and can affect data integrity. Mitigation focus: Apply Oracle April 2020 CPU or later supported Java updates.; Update OpenJDK packages using applicable Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, SUSE, or Gentoo advisories.; Remove or upgrade unsupported Java SE and Java SE Embedded versions..
