Description:


   This update for java-1_6_0-ibm fixes the following issues by updating to
   6.0-16.20 (bsc#963937)

   - CVE-2015-5041: Could could have invoked non-public interface methods
     under certain circumstances
   - CVE-2015-7575: The TLS protocol could allow weaker than expected
     security caused by a collision attack when using the MD5 hash function
     for signing a ServerKeyExchange message during a TLS handshake. An
     attacker could exploit this vulnerability using man-in-the-middle
     techniques to impersonate a TLS server and obtain credentials
   - CVE-2015-7981: libpng could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive
     information, caused by an out-of-bounds read in the
     png_convert_to_rfc1123 function. An attacker could exploit this
     vulnerability to obtain sensitive information
   - CVE-2015-8126: buffer overflow in libpng caused by improper bounds
     checking by the png_set_PLTE() and png_get_PLTE() functions
   - CVE-2015-8472: buffer overflow in libpng caused by improper bounds
     checking by the png_set_PLTE() and png_get_PLTE() functions
   - CVE-2015-8540: libpng is vulnerable to a buffer overflow, caused by a
     read underflow in png_check_keyword in pngwutil.c. By sending an overly
     long argument, a remote attacker could overflow a buffer and execute
     arbitrary code on the system or cause the application to crash.
   - CVE-2016-0402: An unspecified vulnerability related to the Networking
     component has no confidentiality impact, partial integrity impact, and
     no availability impact
   - CVE-2016-0448: An unspecified vulnerability related to the JMX component
     could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information
   - CVE-2016-0466: An unspecified vulnerability related to the JAXP
     component could allow a remote attacker to cause a denial of service
   - CVE-2016-0483: An unspecified vulnerability related to the AWT component
     has complete confidentiality impact, complete integrity impact, and
     complete availability impact
   - CVE-2016-0494: An unspecified vulnerability related to the 2D component
     has complete confidentiality impact, complete integrity impact, and
     complete availability impact
