Synopsis

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

Description

Two improper permission check issues were discovered in the reflection API in OpenJDK. An untrusted Java application or applet could use these flaws to bypass Java sandbox restrictions. (CVE-2012-3174, CVE-2013-0422)

This erratum also upgrades the OpenJDK package to IcedTea7 2.3.4.

All running instances of OpenJDK Java must be restarted for the update to take effect.

Solution

Update the affected packages.
