# CVE-2012-0507: Oracle Java SE Runtime Environment (JRE) Arbitrary Code Execution Vulnerability

- Exploited (CISA KEV): yes, added 2022-03-03, known ransomware use
- Published: 2012-06-07
- CVSS: 9.8 CRITICAL (v3.1)
- EPSS: 98.2% (100th percentile)

Unspecified vulnerability in the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) component in Oracle Java SE 7 Update 2 and earlier, 6 Update 30 and earlier, and 5.0 Update 33 and earlier allows remote attackers to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability via unknown vectors related to Concurrency.  NOTE: the previous information was obtained from the February 2012 Oracle CPU. Oracle has not commented on claims from a downstream vendor and third party researchers that this issue occurs because the AtomicReferenceArray class implementation does not ensure that the array is of the Object[] type, which allows attackers to cause a denial of service (JVM crash) or bypass Java sandbox restrictions.  NOTE: this issue was originally mapped to CVE-2011-3571, but that identifier was already assigned to a different issue.
