Synopsis

The remote Red Hat host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

Updated java-1.7.0-ibm packages that fix several security issues are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 Supplementary.

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having Critical security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base scores, which give detailed severity ratings, are available for each vulnerability from the CVE links in the References section.

IBM Java SE version 7 includes the IBM Java Runtime Environment and the IBM Java Software Development Kit.

This update fixes several vulnerabilities in the IBM Java Runtime Environment and the IBM Java Software Development Kit. Further information about these flaws can be found on the IBM Java Security alerts page, listed in the References section. (CVE-2015-5041, CVE-2015-7575, CVE-2015-7981, CVE-2015-8126, CVE-2015-8472, CVE-2015-8540, CVE-2016-0402, CVE-2016-0448, CVE-2016-0466, CVE-2016-0483, CVE-2016-0494)

Note: This update also disallows the use of the MD5 hash algorithm in the certification path processing. The use of MD5 can be re-enabled by removing MD5 from the jdk.certpath.disabledAlgorithms security property defined in the java.security file.

All users of java-1.7.0-ibm are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, containing the IBM Java SE 7 SR9-FP30 release. All running instances of IBM Java must be restarted for the update to take effect.

Solution

Update the affected packages.

How to Run

Here is how to run the RHEL 5 : java-1.7.0-ibm (RHSA-2016:0100) (SLOTH) as a standalone plugin via the Nessus web user interface (https://localhost:8834/):

Click to start a New Scan.
Select Advanced Scan.
Navigate to the Plugins tab.
On the top right corner click to Disable All plugins.
On the left side table select Red Hat Local Security Checks plugin family.
On the right side table select RHEL 5 : java-1.7.0-ibm (RHSA-2016:0100) (SLOTH) plugin ID 88556.
Specify the target on the Settings tab and click to Save the scan.
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 redhat-RHSA-2016-0100.nasl -t <IP/HOST>

Run the plugin with audit trail message on the console:

/opt/nessus/bin/nasl -a redhat-RHSA-2016-0100.nasl -t <IP/HOST>

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

/opt/nessus/bin/nasl -T - redhat-RHSA-2016-0100.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 redhat-RHSA-2016-0100.nasl -t <IP/HOST>

Go back to menu.
