Summary
=======

The package jre8-openjdk-headless before version 8.u31-1 is vulnerable
to multiple issues including bug not limited to arbitrary code
execution, information disclosure, denial of service, privilege
escalation and man-in-the-middle.

Resolution
==========

Upgrade to 8.u31-1.

# pacman -Syu "jre8-openjdk-headless>=8.u31-1"

The problems have been fixed upstream in version 8.u31.

Workaround
==========

Description
===========

- CVE-2014-3566 (man-in-the-middle)
Nondeterministic CBC padding, which makes it easier for
man-in-the-middle attackers to obtain cleartext data via a
padding-oracle attack, aka the "POODLE" issue.

- CVE-2014-6549 (arbitrary code execution)
Incorrect class loader permission check in ClassLoader getParent()
allows remote attackers to affect confidentiality, integrity, and
availability.

- CVE-2014-6587 (privilege escalation)
MulticastSocket NULL pointer dereference allows local users to affect
confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

- CVE-2014-6593 (man-in-the-middle)
Incorrect tracking of ChangeCipherSpec during SSL/TLS handshake allows
remote attackers to affect confidentiality and integrity.

- CVE-2014-6601 (arbitrary code execution)
Class verifier insufficient invokespecial calls verification related to
Hotspot allows remote attackers to affect confidentiality, integrity,
and availability.

- CVE-2015-0383 (denial of service)
Insecure hsperfdata temporary file handling related to Hotspot allows
local users to affect integrity and availability.

- CVE-2015-0395 (arbitrary code execution)
Phantom references handling issue in garbage collector related to
Hotspot allows remote attackers to affect confidentiality, integrity,
and availability.

- CVE-2015-0400 (information disclosure)
Successful unauthenticated network attacks via multiple protocols can
result in unauthorized read access to a subset of Java SE accessible data.

- CVE-2015-0403 (arbitrary code execution)
Successful attack of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized
Operating System takeover including arbitrary code execution.

- CVE-2015-0406 (information disclosure)
Successful unauthenticated network attacks via multiple protocols can
result in unauthorized read access to a subset of accessible data and
ability to cause a partial denial of service.

- CVE-2015-0407 (information disclosure)
Directory information leak via file chooser related to Swing allows
remote attackers to affect confidentiality.

- CVE-2015-0408 (arbitrary code execution)
Incorrect context class loader use in RMI transport allows remote
attackers to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

- CVE-2015-0410 (denial of service)
DER decoder infinite loop allows remote attackers to affect availability.

- CVE-2015-0412 (arbitrary code execution)
Insufficient code privileges checks related to JAX-WS allows remote
attackers to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

- CVE-2015-0413 (unauthorized modification)
Successful attack of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized
update, insert or delete access to some Java SE accessible data.

- CVE-2015-0421 (arbitrary code execution)
Successful attack of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized
Operating System takeover including arbitrary code execution.

- CVE-2015-0437 (arbitrary code execution)
Code generation issue related to Hotspot allows remote attackers to
affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

Impact
======

A remote attacker is able to perform arbitrary code execution,
information disclosure, denial of service, privilege escalation and
man-in-the-middle via various vulnerabilities.
