Vulnerability in the Java SE, Java SE Embedded component of Oracle Java SE
(subcomponent: Libraries). Supported versions that are affected are Java
SE: 6u191, 7u181, 8u172 and 10.0.1; Java SE Embedded: 8u171. Easily
exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network
access via multiple protocols to compromise Java SE, Java SE Embedded.
Successful attacks require human interaction from a person other than the
attacker. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in
unauthorized read access to a subset of Java SE, Java SE Embedded
accessible data. Note: This vulnerability applies to Java deployments,
typically in clients running sandboxed Java Web Start applications or
sandboxed Java applets, that load and run untrusted code (e.g., code that
comes from the internet) and rely on the Java sandbox for security. This
vulnerability does not apply to Java deployments, typically in servers,
that load and run only trusted code (e.g., code installed by an
administrator). CVSS 3.0 Base Score 4.3 (Confidentiality impacts). CVSS
Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N).
