Synopsis
========

Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in Oracle's JRE and JDK
software suites allowing remote attackers to remotely execute arbitrary
code, obtain information, and cause Denial of Service.

Background
==========

Java Platform, Standard Edition (Java SE) lets you develop and deploy
Java applications on desktops and servers, as well as in today=E2=80=99s
demanding embedded environments. Java offers the rich user interface,
performance, versatility, portability, and security that today=E2=80=99s
applications require.

Affected packages
=================

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
-------------------------------------------------------------------
1 dev-java/oracle-jre-bin < 1.8.0.102 Vulnerable!
< 1.8.0.102
2 dev-java/oracle-jdk-bin >= 1.8.0.102
>= 1.8.0.102
-------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE: Certain packages are still vulnerable. Users should migrate
to another package if one is available or wait for the
existing packages to be marked stable by their
architecture maintainers.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
2 affected packages

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

Multiple vulnerabilities exist in both Oracle=E2=80=99s JRE and JDK. Plea=
se
review the referenced CVE=E2=80=99s for additional information.

Impact

Remote attackers could gain access to information, remotely execute
arbitrary code, or cause Denial of Service.

Workaround
==========

There is no known workaround at this time.

# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot -v ">=dev-java/oracle-jdk-bin-1.8.0.102"
