A null pointer dereference flaw was found in openssl. A remote attacker, able to control the arguments of the GENERALNAMEcmp function, could cause the application, compiled with openssl to crash resulting in a denial of service. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability.
A flaw was found in the way the XMLSchemaValidator class in the JAXP component of OpenJDK enforced the "use-grammar-pool-only" feature. A specially-crafted XML file could possibly use this flaw to manipulate with the validation process in certain cases.
A flaw was found in the TLS implementation in the JSSE component of OpenJDK. Setting algorithm constraints on SSLParameters using the setAlgorithmConstraints() method could override the systems security policy defined using the jdk.tls.disabledAlgorithms security property and lead to the use of weak algorithms that were intended to be disabled.
A flaw was found in the TLS/SSL implementation in the JSSE component of OpenJDK, where it did not properly handle application data packets received before the handshake completion. This flaw allowed unauthorized injection of data at the beginning of a TLS session.
A flaw was found in the way the TLS implementation in the JSSE component of OpenJDK handled unexpected Certificate messages during the TLS handshake. This could possibly allow an attacker to tamper with certificate verification performed during the handshake.
A flaw was found in the way the readObject() method of the MethodType class in the Libraries component of OpenJDK checked argument types. An untrusted Java application or applet could use this flaw to bypass Java sandbox restrictions.
A flaw was found in the boundary checks in the java.nio buffer classes in the Libraries component of OpenJDK, where it is bypassed in certain cases. This flaw allows an untrusted Java application or applet o bypass Java sandbox restrictions.
A regular expression denial of service flaw was found in the Concurrency component of OpenJDK. The use of overly complex regular expressions in java.utils.Scanner could cause a high CPU usage when Scanner was used on parse certain inputs.
A CRLF injection flaw was found in the Lightweight HTTP Server component of OpenJDK. The HttpServer implementation did not restrict the use of CR and LF characters in values for HTTP headers, possibly allowing HTTP response splitting attacks.
A memory leak was found in the xmlSchemaValidateStream function of libxml2. Applications that use this library may be vulnerable to memory not being freed leading to a denial of service. System availability is the highest threat from this vulnerability.
Vulnerability in the Java SE product of Oracle Java SE (component: JavaFX). The supported version that is affected is Java SE: 8u231. Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Java SE. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized creation, deletion or modification access to critical data or all Java SE accessible data. Note: This vulnerability applies to Java deployments, typically in clients running sandboxed Java Web Start applications or sandboxed Java applets (in Java SE 8), that load and run untrusted code (e.g., code that comes from the internet) and rely on the Java sandbox for security. This vulnerability can also be exploited by using APIs in the specified Component, e.g., through a web service which supplies data to the APIs. CVSS 3.0 Base Score 5.9 (Integrity impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N).
In numbers.c in libxslt 1.1.33, a type holding grouping characters of an xsl:number instruction was too narrow and an invalid character/length combination could be passed to xsltNumberFormatDecimal, leading to a read of uninitialized stack data.

A use-after-free vulnerability was discovered in the pngimagefree function in the libpng library. This could lead to denial of service or a potentially exploitable crash when a malformed image is processed.
Vulnerability in the Java SE component of Oracle Java SE (subcomponent: Windows DLL). Supported versions that are affected are Java SE: 7u181 and 8u172. Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Java SE.

It was discovered that the implementation of the PatternSyntaxException class in the Concurrency component of OpenJDK failed to sufficiently validate the 'index' value (to ensure it's not greater than the regular expression length) in the getMessage() method. An instance of the class with invalid index value, for example one created via deserialization on an untrusted input, could cause a Java application to use an excessive amount of memory.

It was discovered that key store implementations in the Security component of OpenJDK did not use sufficient number of iterations when generating password-based encryption keys used to protect private keys in key stores. This made it easier to perform password guessing attacks to decrypt stored keys if an attacker could gain access to a key store.
An unspecified vulnerability in Oracle Java SE related to the Java SE, Java SE Embedded, JRockit Networking component could allow an unauthenticated attacker to cause a denial of service resulting in a low availability impact using unknown attack vectors.
It was found that the HttpURLConnection and HttpsURLConnection classes implementations in the Networking component of OpenJDK failed to check for newline characters embedded in URLs. An attacker able to make a Java application to perform an HTTP request to an attacker provided URL could possibly inject additional headers into the request.
It was discovered that the implementation of multiple classes in the Serialization component of OpenJDK did not limit the amount of memory allocated when creating object instances from a serialized form. A specially-crafted input could cause a Java application to use an excessive amount of memory when deserialized.
