"The remote Ubuntu 25.10 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the
USN-7997-1 advisory.
It was discovered that the RMI component of CRaC JDK 17 would establish RMI TCP endpoint connections to a
remote host without setting an endpoint identification algorithm. An unauthenticated remote attacker could
possibly use this issue to steal sensitive information. (CVE-2026-21925)
Mingijung discovered that the AWT and JavaFX componenets of CRaC JDK 17 could run programs if
Desktop.browse() was supplied a filename as a URI. An unauthenticated remote attacker could possibly use
this issue to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2026-21932)
Zhihui Chen discovered that the Networking component of CRaC JDK 17 was suceptible to a CRLF injection
vulnerability via the HttpServer class. An unauthenticated remote attacker could possibly use this issue
to modify files or leak sensitive information. (CVE-2026-21933)
Ireneusz Pastusiak discovered that the Security component of CRaC JDK 17 failed to verify provided URIs
point to a legitimate source when AIA is enabled. An unauthenticated remote attacker could possibly use
this issue to redirect users to malicious hosts. (CVE-2026-21945)
In addition to security fixes, the updated packages contain bug fixes, new features, and possibly
incompatible changes.
