 Hi,
 
 Any news on this?

I'll just start by restating my initial comment on both issues :
-
We don't build any real Glassfish Server but just some parts of API 
library used as Java EE specifications. As for any specification, this is just 
a 
collection of interfaces and don't have much more implementations than dumb or 
stub code.
-

So I don't think that CVE-2010-4438 or CVE-2011-5035 affect Debian binary 
packages. 

OK, fair enough.

But I cannot be 100% sure since :
- Upstream bugtracker [1] doesn't contains ref to those security issues
- My Oracle contact (GlassFish community manager) only told me that 
CVE-2011-5035 is integrated in GlassFish 3.1.1 Patch 2 (an update to 3.1.1 
for paying customers). The fix is in the trunk and will be integrated in the 
3.1.2 release scheduled for later this quarter

I don't think I'll do further investigation on those issues...
At least, there is one instructing thing : we have to think twice before 
integrating of a full blown Glassfish JEE server (ie. not just API) into 
Debian 
as from my point of view Glassfish Security is not handled as an open source 
should.

Yes, I'd have to agree with that. :-(

If you're *reasonably* confident that we're not affected by those
CVE issues, is it worth maybe dropping the severity of the Debian bugs
from serious?

Sadly, no :/ I must admit that Oracle does not publish details of its

 See http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2010-4438
 
 Please get in touch with Oracle to check, what unspecified
 vulnerability they fixed...

From CVE abstract :

Sun GlassFish Enterprise Server contains a flaw related to the 'Java Message 
Service (JMS)' sub-component that may allow a local attacker to have a partial 
affect on integrity and confidentiality and cause a denial of service. No 
further details have been provided. 


As we hardly build any real Glassfish Server but just some parts of API 
library from Java EE specifications.
FYI, /usr/share/java/glassfish-jms.jar is just a collection of interfaces and 
don't have any implementations of a JMS server.

So I don't think Debian package is affected by this issue, but we'll have to 
wait until Oracle/Glassfish team publish some source code to confirm ths.

Ok, I've updated the Security Tracker to mark it as not-affected. I wasn't
aware that the Debian Glassfish package doesn't provide the full stack.

In that case, this sounds like a fix could be deferred until after the
release, if it's required at all; tagging as not a blocker.
