A flaw was found in the way the Libraries component of OpenJDK verified OCSP (Online Certificate Status Protocol) response. An OCSP response with no nextUpdate date specified was incorrectly handled as having unlimited validity. This could allow a Java application to accept a revoked X.509 certificate as valid if it was presented with an OCSP response generated before certificate revocation.
