Synopsis

The remote openSUSE host is missing a security update.

Description

The Sun Java 6 SDK/JRE was updated to u17 update fixing bugs and various security issues :

CVE-2009-3866:The Java Web Start Installer in Sun Java SE in JDK and JRE 6 before Update 17 does not properly use security model permissions when removing installer extensions, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by modifying a certain JNLP file to have a URL field that poi nts to an unintended trusted application, aka Bug Id 6872824.

CVE-2009-3867: Stack-based buffer overflow in the HsbParser.getSoundBank function in Sun Java SE in JDK and JRE 5.0 before Update 22, JDK and JRE 6 before Update 17, SDK and JRE 1.3.x before 1.3.1_27, and SDK and JRE 1.4.x before 1.4.2_24 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long file: URL in an argument, aka Bug Id 6854303.

CVE-2009-3869: Stack-based buffer overflow in the setDiffICM function in the Abstract Window Toolkit (AWT) in Java Runtime Environment (JRE) in Sun Java SE in JDK and JRE 5.0 before Update 22, JDK and JRE 6 before Update 17, SDK and JRE 1.3.x before 1.3.1_27, and SDK and JRE 1.4.x before 1.4.2_ 24 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted argument, aka Bug Id 6872357.

Exploit Ease: Exploits are available

Here's the list of publicly known exploits and PoCs for verifying the openSUSE Security Update : java-1_6_0-sun (java-1_6_0-sun-1541) vulnerability:

  1. Metasploit: exploit/multi/browser/java_setdifficm_bof
    [Sun Java JRE AWT setDiffICM Buffer Overflow]
  2. Metasploit: exploit/multi/browser/java_getsoundbank_bof
    [Sun Java JRE getSoundbank file:// URI Buffer Overflow]
  3. Exploit-DB: exploits/multiple/remote/16294.rb
    [EDB-16294: Sun Java JRE - getSoundbank 'file://' URI Buffer Overflow (Metasploit)]
  4. Exploit-DB: exploits/multiple/remote/16298.rb

How to Run


Here is how to run the openSUSE Security Update : java-1_6_0-sun (java-1_6_0-sun-1541) as a standalone plugin via the Nessus web user interface (https://localhost:8834/):

  1. Click to start a New Scan.
  2. Select Advanced Scan.
  3. Navigate to the Plugins tab.
  4. On the top right corner click to Disable All plugins.
  5. On the left side table select SuSE Local Security Checks plugin family.
  6. On the right side table select openSUSE Security Update : java-1_6_0-sun (java-1_6_0-sun-1541) plugin ID 42855.
  7. Specify the target on the Settings tab and click to Save the scan.
  8. Run the scan.

Here are a few examples of how to run the plugin in the command line. Note that the examples below demonstrate the usage on the Linux / Unix platform.

Basic usage:

/opt/nessus/bin/nasl suse_11_2_java-1_6_0-sun-091113.nasl -t <IP/HOST>

Run the plugin with audit trail message on the console:

/opt/nessus/bin/nasl -a suse_11_2_java-1_6_0-sun-091113.nasl -t <IP/HOST>

Run the plugin with trace script execution written to the console (useful for debugging):

/opt/nessus/bin/nasl -T - suse_11_2_java-1_6_0-sun-091113.nasl -t <IP/HOST>

Run the plugin with using a state file for the target and updating it (useful for running multiple plugins on the target):

/opt/nessus/bin/nasl -K /tmp/state suse_11_2_java-1_6_0-sun-091113.nasl -t <IP/HOST>
