NOTE: the previous information is from the January 2016 CPU. Oracle has not commented on third-party claims that this is a heap-based buffer overflow in the readImage function, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted image data.","published":"2016-01-21T03:00:31.000Z","lastModified":"2026-10-15T16:17:12.000Z","status":"Modified","sourceIdentifier":"secalert_us@oracle.com","cvss":{"version":"2.0","score":10,"severity":"HIGH","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C"},"cwe":[],"affected":["oracle/jdk","oracle/jre","oracle/jrockit","canonical/ubuntu linux"],"epss":{"score":0.14714,"percentile":0.96684,"date":"2026-11-04","history":[]},"kev":{"listed":false},"exploits":{"count":0,"verified":false,"firstPublished":null,"source":"Exploit-DB (https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb)","entries":[]},"verdict":{"level":"urgent","text":"EPSS puts the probability of exploitation in the next 30 days at 14.7%, higher than 97% of all known CVEs.
