descriptionThis Solaris system is missing necessary patches to address critical security updates : - Vulnerability in the Solaris component of Oracle Sun Systems Products Suite (subcomponent: Grub2). The supported version that is affected is 11. Difficult to exploit vulnerability requiring logon to Operating System. Successful attack of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized Operating System takeover including arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2015-8370) - Vulnerability in the Solaris component of Oracle Sun Systems Products Suite (subcomponent: Zones). The supported version that is affected is 11. Easily exploitable vulnerability requiring logon to Operating System plus additional, multiple logins to components. Successful attack of this vulnerability can escalate attacker privileges resulting in unauthorized read access to a subset of Solaris accessible data. (CVE-2016-0618)
