CVE-2025-50059Network attack vector

Critical data disclosure via undisclosed networking flaw

Published Jul 15, 2025 · Updated Nov 3, 2025

Improper access control in Oracle Java SE and GraalVM Networking allows remote attackers to read critical data through sandboxed code. Oracle has not published the affected Networking API or the operation that mishandles untrusted input. Exposure is limited to clients that load untrusted Java Web Start applications or applets and rely on the Java sandbox; trusted-code server deployments are not affected.
