Unauthenticated data disclosure through HTTP-exposed Networking APIs
Published Aug 18, 2026 · Updated Aug 18, 2026
Improper access control in Oracle Java SE and GraalVM Networking allows remote attackers to read accessible data via HTTP. Oracle has disclosed only that HTTP-supplied data reaches Networking APIs, not the faulty API, input, or access-control operation. Exploitation requires a difficult-to-achieve condition and either a web service that passes attacker data into those APIs or sandboxed Java code; successful attacks disclose critical or all data accessible to the affected Java process.
