Security Advisory Description
o CVE-2018-3149
Vulnerability in the Java SE, Java SE Embedded, JRockit component of Oracle
Java SE (subcomponent: JNDI). Supported versions that are affected are Java
SE: 6u201, 7u191, 8u182 and 11; Java SE Embedded: 8u181; JRockit: R28.3.19.
Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows unauthenticated 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 takeover
of Java SE, Java SE Embedded, JRockit. Note: This vulnerability applies to
Java deployments, typically in clients running sandboxed Java Web Start
applications or sandboxed Java applets (in Java SE 8), that load and run
untrusted code (e.g. code that comes from the internet) and rely on the
Java sandbox for security. This vulnerability can also be exploited by
using APIs in the specified Component, e.g. through a web service which
supplies data to the APIs. CVSS 3.0 Base Score 8.3 (Confidentiality,
Integrity and Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/
UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H).
o CVE-2018-3169
Vulnerability in the Java SE, Java SE Embedded component of Oracle Java SE
(subcomponent: Hotspot). Supported versions that are affected are Java SE:
7u191, 8u182 and 11; Java SE Embedded: 8u181. Difficult to exploit
vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via
multiple protocols to compromise Java SE, Java SE Embedded. Successful
attacks require human interaction from a person other than the attacker and
while the vulnerability is in Java SE, Java SE Embedded, attacks may
significantly impact additional products. Successful attacks of this
vulnerability can result in takeover of Java SE, Java SE Embedded. Note:
This vulnerability applies to Java deployments, typically in clients
running sandboxed Java Web Start applications or sandboxed Java applets (in
Java SE 8), 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 8.3 (Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability impacts). CVSS
Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H).

Vulnerability in the Java SE component of Oracle Java SE (subcomponent:
JavaFX). The supported version that is affected is Java SE: 8u182.
Difficult to exploit 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 (in Java SE 8), 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 8.3 (Confidentiality, Integrity and
