How to fix?

Upgrade openjdk-jre to version 7.0.351, 8.0.342, 11.0.16, 17.0.4, 18.0.2 or higher.

Overview

openjdk-jre is a free and open-source implementation of the Java Platform, Standard Edition (Java SE).

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Integer Coercion Error through the Apache Java XSLT library, via the processing of a malicious XSLT stylesheet. Exploiting this vulnerability can allow an attacker to corrupt Java class files generated by the internal XSLTC compiler and execute arbitrary Java bytecode.

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 and rely on the Java sandbox for security. This vulnerability can also be exploited by using APIs in the specified Component, e.g., through a web service that supplies data to the APIs.
