Synopsis
========

Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in Oracle JDK and JRE, the
worst of which could result in the arbitrary execution of code.

Background
==========

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

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

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
-------------------------------------------------------------------
1 dev-java/oracle-jdk-bin <= 11.0.2 Vulnerable!
2 dev-java/oracle-jre-bin <= 1.8.0.202 Vulnerable!

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

Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Oracle's JDK and JRE
software suites. Please review the CVE identifiers referenced below for
details.

Impact
======

Certain uses of untrusted data by Oracle JDK and JRE could result in
arbitrary code execution.

Workaround
==========

There is no known workaround at this time.

Resolution
==========

Gentoo has discontinued support for the Oracle JDK and JRE. We recommend
that users remove it, and use dev-java/openjdk, dev-java/openjdk-bin, or
dev-java/openjdk-jre-bin instead:

# emerge --ask --depclean "dev-java/oracle-jre-bin"
# emerge --ask --depclean "dev-java/oracle-jdk-bin"
