descriptionThe version of Java SDK installed on the remote AIX host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities : - The Global Security Kit (GSKit) contains a flaw due to improper restrictions of TLS state transitions. A man-in-the-middle attacker can exploit this to downgrade the security of a session to use EXPORT_RSA ciphers. This allows the attacker to more easily break the encryption and monitor or tamper with the encrypted stream. (CVE-2015-0138) - An unspecified flaw exists that allows an attacker to execute code running under a security manager with elevated privileges.(CVE-2015-0192) - A security feature bypass vulnerability, known as FREAK (Factoring attack on RSA-EXPORT Keys), exists due to the support of weak EXPORT_RSA cipher suites with keys less than or equal to 512 bits. A man-in-the-middle attacker may be able to downgrade the SSL/TLS connection to use EXPORT_RSA cipher suites which can be factored in a short amount of time, allowing the attacker to intercept and decrypt the traffic. (CVE-2015-0204) - Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities exist in multiple Java subcomponents including 2D, Beans, Deployment, JCE, JSSE, and tools. (CVE-2015-0458, CVE-2015-0459, CVE-2015-0469, CVE-2015-0477, CVE-2015-0478, CVE-2015-0480, CVE-2015-0486, CVE-2015-0488, CVE-2015-0491) - An unspecified flaw exists that allows a remote attacker to bypass permission checks and gain access to sensitive information. (CVE-2015-1914) - An unspecified flaw exists due to the Socket Extension Provider

    the security of a session to use EXPORT_RSA ciphers.
    This allows the attacker to more easily break the
    encryption and monitor or tamper with the encrypted
    stream. (CVE-2015-0138)

  - An unspecified flaw exists that allows an attacker to
    execute code running under a security manager with
    elevated privileges.(CVE-2015-0192)

  - A security feature bypass vulnerability, known as FREAK
    (Factoring attack on RSA-EXPORT Keys), exists due to the
    support of weak EXPORT_RSA cipher suites with keys less
    than or equal to 512 bits. A man-in-the-middle attacker

  - An unspecified flaw exists that allows a remote attacker
    to bypass permission checks and gain access to sensitive
    information. (CVE-2015-1914)

  - An unspecified flaw exists due to the Socket Extension
    Provider's handling of TLS and SSL connections. A remote
    attacker can exploit this to cause a denial of service.
    (CVE-2015-1916)

  - A security feature bypass vulnerability exists, known as
    Bar Mitzvah, due to improper combination of state data
    with key data by the RC4 cipher algorithm during the
    initialization phase. A man-in-the-middle attacker can
    exploit this, via a brute-force attack using LSB values,
    to decrypt the traffic. (CVE-2015-2808)");
