Release Date: 2007-03-06 Last Updated: 2007-03-06 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------- Potential Security Impact: Remote execution of arbitrary code. Source: Hewlett-Packard Company, HP Software Security Response Team VULNERABILITY SUMMARY Java Runtime Environment (JRE) and Java Developer Kit (JDK) may allow a remote user to execute arbitrary code. References: CVE-2007-0243, CVE-2006-6745, CVE-2006-6731 SUPPORTED SOFTWARE VERSIONS*: ONLY impacted versions are listed. HP-UX B.11.11 and B.11.23 running Java Runtime Environment (JRE) and Java Developer Kit (JDK): Release 5.0.05 i.e., Release 1.5.0.05, Release 1.4.2.11 and earlier, Release 1.3.1.19 and earlier. BACKGROUND For a PGP signed version of this security bulletin please write to: security-alert@hp.com The Sun Java Runtime Environment (JRE) and Java Developer Kit (JDK) contain multiple vulnerabilities that can allow a remote, unauthenticated user to execute arbitrary code on a vulnerable system. AFFECTED VERSIONS NOTE: To determine if a system has an affected version, search the output of "swlist -a revision -l fileset" for an affected fileset. Then determine if a fixed revision or applicable patch is installed.

For example, when the $java -version is 5.0.6 the version shown by swlist is 1.5.0.06. RESOLUTION HP is providing the following Java updates to resolve the JRE potential vulnerability. The updates are available from: http://www.hp.com/go/java The HP website mentions Java 5.0, which can be recognized from the swlist -l fileset return value of 1.5.0.01.06. These issues are addressed in the following versions of the HP Java: * JDK and JRE 1.5.0.6 or subsequent, * SDK and JRE 1.4.2.12 or subsequent, * SDK and JRE 1.3.1.20 or subsequent. If the latest version of Java is installed, older versions of Java may remain installed on the system. If these versions of Java are not needed, you may wish to remove them. MANUAL ACTIONS: Yes - Update For Java 1.5.0.00.00, update to Java 1.5.0.06 or subsequent. For Java 1.4.2.11 and earlier, update to revision 1.4.2.11 or subsequent. For Java 1.3.1.19 or earlier, update to revision 1.3.1.20 so subsequent.
