Synopsis

The remote host has a version of Java installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The remote Mac OS X host is running a version of Java for Mac OS X 10.7 that is missing Update 1, which updates the Java version to 1.6.0_29. It is, therefore, affected by multiple security vulnerabilities, the most serious of which may allow an untrusted Java applet to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the current user outside the Java sandbox.

Solution

Upgrade to Java for Mac OS X 10.7 Update 1, which includes version 14.1.0 of the JavaVM Framework.

How to Run


Here is how to run the Mac OS X : Java for Mac OS X 10.7 Update 1 (BEAST) 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 MacOS X Local Security Checks plugin family.
  6. On the right side table select Mac OS X : Java for Mac OS X 10.7 Update 1 (BEAST) plugin ID 56749.
  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 macosx_java_10_7_update1.nasl -t <IP/HOST>

Run the plugin with audit trail message on the console:

/opt/nessus/bin/nasl -a macosx_java_10_7_update1.nasl -t <IP/HOST>

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

/opt/nessus/bin/nasl -T - macosx_java_10_7_update1.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 macosx_java_10_7_update1.nasl -t <IP/HOST>

Go back to menu.
