Synopsis

The remote Windows host contains a programming platform that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The version of Oracle (formerly Sun) Java SE or Java for Business installed on the remote host is earlier than 7 Update 3 / 6 Update 31 / 5.0 Update 34 / 1.4.2_36 and is, therefore, potentially affected by security issues in the following components :

- 2D - AWT - CORBA - Concurrency - Deployment - I18n - Install - Java Runtime Environment - Lightweight HTTP Server - Serialization - Sound

Solution

Update to JDK / JRE 7 Update 3 / 6 Update 31, JDK 5.0 Update 34, SDK 1.4.2_36 or later, and remove, if necessary, any affected versions.

Note that an Extended Support contract with Oracle is needed to obtain JDK 5.0 Update 34 or later.

How to Run


Here is how to run the Oracle Java SE Multiple Vulnerabilities (February 2012 CPU) 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 Windows plugin family.
  6. On the right side table select Oracle Java SE Multiple Vulnerabilities (February 2012 CPU) plugin ID 57959.
  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 oracle_java_cpu_feb_2012.nasl -t <IP/HOST>

Run the plugin with audit trail message on the console:

/opt/nessus/bin/nasl -a oracle_java_cpu_feb_2012.nasl -t <IP/HOST>

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

/opt/nessus/bin/nasl -T - oracle_java_cpu_feb_2012.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 oracle_java_cpu_feb_2012.nasl -t <IP/HOST>

Go back to menu.
