SV-81211r1_rule Oracle JRE 8 must have a deployment.config file present.

Vulnerability discussion

By default no deployment.config file exists; thus, no system-wide deployment.properties file exists. The file must be created. The deployment.config file is used for specifying the location and execution of system-level properties for the Java Runtime Environment. Without the deployment.config file, setting particular options for the Java control panel is impossible.

Check content

Verify a JRE deployment configuration file exists as indicated: /etc/.java/deployment/deployment.config If the configuration file does not exist as indicated, this is a finding.

Fix text

Create a JRE deployment configuration file as indicated: /etc/.java/deployment/deployment.config

Pro Tips

Lavender hyperlinks in small type off to the right (of CSS class id, if you view the page source) point to globally unique URIs for each document and item. Copy the link location and paste anywhere you need to talk unambiguously about these things.

You can obtain data about documents and items in other formats. Simply provide an HTTP header Accept: text/turtle or Accept: application/rdf+xml.
