Vulnerability Published: 2013-02-28
Patch Published: 2013-03-04
CVE [?]: CVE-2013-0809, CVE-2013-1493
CPE [?]: cpe:/a:apple:java_1.6
Exploited by Malware: True

Synopsis

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

Description

The remote Mac OS X 10.7 or 10.8 host has a Java runtime that is missing the Java for OS X 2013-002 update, which updates the Java version to 1.6.0_43. It is, therefore, affected by two 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.

Note that an exploit for CVE-2013-1493 has been observed in the wild.

Solution

Apply the Java for OS X 2013-002 update, which includes version 14.6.1 of the JavaVM Framework.

Public Exploits

Target Network Port(s): N/A
Target Asset(s): N/A
Exploit Available: True (Metasploit Framework, Exploit-DB, Core Impact)
Exploit Ease: Exploits are available

Here's the list of publicly known exploits and PoCs for verifying the Mac OS X : Java for OS X 2013-002 vulnerability:

Metasploit: exploit/windows/browser/java_cmm
[Java CMM Remote Code Execution]
Exploit-DB: exploits/windows/remote/24904.rb

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_2013-002.nasl -t <IP/HOST>

Run the plugin with audit trail message on the console:

/opt/nessus/bin/nasl -a macosx_java_2013-002.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_2013-002.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_2013-002.nasl -t <IP/HOST>
