Description
Vulnerability in the Oracle JavaFX product of Oracle Java SE (component: JavaFX). Supported versions that are affected are Oracle JavaFX: 25.0.4 and 27. Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Oracle JavaFX. Successful attacks require human interaction from a person other than the attacker. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized read access to a subset of Oracle JavaFX accessible data. Note: This vulnerability applies to Java deployments, typically in clients running sandboxed Java Web Start applications or sandboxed Java applets, that load and run untrusted code (e.g., code that comes from the internet) and rely on the Java sandbox for security. This vulnerability does not apply to Java deployments, typically in servers, that load and run only trusted code (e.g., code installed by an administrator). CVSS 3.1 Base Score 3.1 (Confidentiality impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N).

AI Analysis

Impact

The vulnerability in Oracle JavaFX allows an unauthenticated attacker with network access to compromise sandboxed Java deployments and read a subset of data. The flaw requires human interaction beyond the attacker to trigger, and the resulting impact is limited to confidentiality, with a CVSS base score of 3.1. Accessing Java Web Start applications or applets that load untrusted code can expose sensitive information while the sandbox is supposed to prevent it.

Affected Systems

Oracle JavaFX versions 25.0.4 and 27 are affected. The issue applies to client environments that run sandboxed Java Web Start applications or applets that import code from the internet. Server deployments that exclusively use trusted code are not impacted.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 3.1 reflects a low impact, and the EPSS score of < 1% indicates limited public exploit activity. The vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. Attackers would need network reach to the impacted JavaFX instance and a user to interact with it, making exploitation more difficult. The attack vector is likely network-based, but user involvement is required for the read exploit to succeed.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Apply any available Oracle JavaFX patch or update to a fixed version when released.
  • Disable Java Web Start and applet functionality in client environments that can load untrusted code.
  • Configure systems to load only trusted code in the sandbox and monitor for anomalous data reads or transmissions.
