Bug 233652 – <dev-java/ibm-{jdk,jre}-bin:1.4.2.12: multiple vulnerabilities

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Security

[Description Vlastimil Babka (Caster) (RETIRED) 2008-08-01 22:23:43 UTC]

As usual, bugs in Sun JDK are likely to affect other vendors also due to shared classes etc, and updatess come after a while after Sun updates. The IBM JDK 1.5.0.8 update I noticed today mentions the following security stuff in changelog (which you probably can't access without login to IBM site):

asdev-20080626	136205	IZ24898	c	N/A	Sun Security Bulletin 150_16
jsdev-20080613	134284	IZ24844	c	6581221	Sun Security fixes 6450319 6557220 6581221 6607339 6661918
xs2dev-20080613	134284	IZ24844	c	6581221	Sun Security fixes 6450319 6557220 6581221 6607339 6661918

Some of the fix numbers are mentioned in Sun advisories in bug 231337. Not sure if all apply to IBM and are fixed in this version. Seems IBM didn't release own advisory yet. I'll at least put the new version in tree and ask for stabling. There are no updates for slots 1.6 and 1.4 yet.

Thanks for following this up, please cc arches as yo push updates.

[Comment 2 Vlastimil Babka (Caster) (RETIRED) 2008-08-03 21:54:05 UTC]

Arches please stabilize ibm-jdk-bin and ibm-jre-bin 1.5.0.8. Distfiles as usual via ssh d.g.o/~caster/tmp

[Comment 3 Markus Meier 2008-08-06 19:21:29 UTC]

amd64/x86 stable

[Comment 4 Markus Rothe (RETIRED) 2008-08-07 18:28:52 UTC]

[Comment 5 Tobias Scherbaum (RETIRED) 2008-08-19 21:12:47 UTC]

ppc stable for 1.5.0.8

[Comment 6 Vlastimil Babka (Caster) (RETIRED) 2008-09-09 04:52:50 UTC]

Bah, instead of the other slots they released 1.5.0.8a which has "Sun Security fix 6332953" which is probably this vuln: http://sunsolve.sun.com/search/document.do?assetkey=1-66-238965-1

So please stabilize ibm-jdk-bin and ibm-jre-bin 1.5.0.8a. Distfiles as usual.

[Comment 7 Brent Baude (RETIRED) 2008-09-10 13:37:32 UTC]

x86 stable, all arches done for 1.5

[Comment 10 Vlastimil Babka (Caster) (RETIRED) 2008-09-16 07:45:40 UTC]

So, IBM finally released alerts (in $URL) and a fixed 1.6 which I'm gonna update. No 1.4 yet.

[Comment 11 Vlastimil Babka (Caster) (RETIRED) 2008-09-16 09:52:58 UTC]

distfiles as usual

[Comment 15 Vlastimil Babka (Caster) (RETIRED) 2008-10-11 17:51:31 UTC]

Turns out in bug 240384 that I've used old distfiles for the javacomm optional stuff in 1.6, so ppc/ppc64 please stabilize also ibm-jdk-bin-1.6.0.2-r1 thanks.
