Synopsis: Critical: java-1.6.0-openjdk security update Issue Date: 2013-03-06 CVE Numbers: CVE-2013-0809 CVE-2013-1493 -- An integer overflow flaw was found in the way the 2D component handled certain sample model instances. A specially-crafted sample model instance could cause Java Virtual Machine memory corruption and, possibly, lead to arbitrary code execution with virtual machine privileges. (CVE-2013-0809) It was discovered that the 2D component did not properly reject certain malformed images. Specially-crafted raster parameters could cause Java Virtual Machine memory corruption and, possibly, lead to arbitrary code execution with virtual machine privileges. (CVE-2013-1493) Note: If your system has not yet been upgraded to Scientific Linux 6.4 and the web browser plug-in provided by the icedtea-web package was installed, the issues exposed via Java applets could have been exploited without user interaction if a user visited a malicious website. Thus, this update has been rated as having critical security impact as a one time exception. The icedtea-web package as provided with Scientific Linux 6.4 uses OpenJDK 7 instead. This erratum also upgrades the OpenJDK package to IcedTea6 1.11.9. All running instances of OpenJDK Java must be restarted for the update to take effect. -- SL6 x86_64 java-1.6.0-openjdk-1.6.0.0-1.57.1.11.9.el6_4.x86_64.rpm java-1.6.0-openjdk-debuginfo-1.6.0.0-1.57.1.11.9.el6_4.x86_64.rpm java-1.6.0-openjdk-demo-1.6.0.0-1.57.1.11.9.el6_4.x86_64.rpm java-1.6.0-openjdk-devel-1.6.0.0-1.57.1.11.9.el6_4.x86_64.rpm java-1.6.0-openjdk-javadoc-1.6.0.0-1.57.1.11.9.el6_4.x86_64.rpm java-1.6.0-openjdk-src-1.6.0.0-1.57.1.11.9.el6_4.x86_64.rpm i386 java-1.6.0-openjdk-1.6.0.0-1.57.1.11.9.el6_4.i686.rpm java-1.6.0-openjdk-debuginfo-1.6.0.0-1.57.1.11.9.el6_4.i686.rpm java-1.6.0-openjdk-demo-1.6.0.0-1.57.1.11.9.el6_4.i686.rpm java-1.6.0-openjdk-devel-1.6.0.0-1.57.1.11.9.el6_4.i686.rpm java-1.6.0-openjdk-javadoc-1.6.0.0-1.57.1.11.9.el6_4.i686.rpm java-1.6.0-openjdk-src-1.6.0.0-1.57.1.11.9.el6_4.i686.rpm - Scientific Linux Development Team
