Published Oct 14, 2013
·
Updated

It was discovered that various OpenJDK classes that represent cryptographic keys could leak private key information by including sensitive data in strings returned by toString() methods. If a Java application called the toString() method on any of the affected classes, it could possibly lead to an unexpected exposure of sensitive key data.

Other sources

Unspecified vulnerability in Oracle Java SE 7u40 and earlier, Java SE 6u60 and earlier, Java SE 5.0u51 and earlier, JRockit R28.2.8 and earlier, JRockit R27.7.6 and earlier, and Java SE Embedded 7u40 and earlier allows remote attackers to affect confidentiality via unknown vectors related to Libraries.
