Synopsis

The remote Scientific Linux host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

As a reminder, the openjdk Java environment is available in Scientific Linux 5. Updates for openjdk are released in a similar manner to other security updates. Scientific Linux 6 does not bundle the closed source Java environment.

All running instances of Sun/Oracle Java must be restarted for the update to take effect.

Solution

Update the affected java-1.6.0-sun-compat and / or jdk packages.

Public Exploits

Target Network Port(s): N/A
Target Asset(s): N/A
Exploit Available: True (Metasploit Framework)
