It was discovered that the implementation of the ThreadPoolExecutor class in the java.util.concurrent package of the Libraries component of OpenJDK failed to properly perform access control checks. An untrusted Java application or applet could use this flaw to bypass Java sandbox restrictions.
It was discovered that the implementation of the ImageWatched class in the AWT component of OpenJDK failed to properly perform access control checks. An untrusted Java application or applet could use this flaw to bypass Java sandbox restrictions.
It was discovered that the implementation of the ActivationID class in the RMI component of OpenJDK failed to properly perform access control checks. An untrusted Java application or applet could use this flaw to bypass Java sandbox restrictions.
It was discovered that the implementation of the ServiceRegistry class in the ImageIO component of OpenJDK failed to properly perform access control checks. An untrusted Java application or applet could use this flaw to bypass Java sandbox restrictions.
It was discovered that the JAXP component of OpenJDK failed to restrict access to certain internal classes. An untrusted Java application or applet could use this flaw to bypass Java sandbox restrictions.
The fix for this issue adds the following packages to the package.access security property, which defines the list of restricted internal packages not accessible to untrusted code:
com.sun.org.apache.xml.internal.resolver.helpers. com.sun.org.apache.xml.internal.resolver.readers.
It was discovered that the implementation of the TransformerException class in the JAXP component of OpenJDK failed to properly perform access control checks, related to handling of the DTM exceptions. An untrusted Java application or applet could use this flaw to bypass Java sandbox restrictions.
It was discovered that the DCG (Distributed Garbage Collector) implementation in the RMI component of OpenJDK failed to correctly handle references. A remote attacker could possibly use this flaw to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of RMI registry or a Java RMI application.
It was discovered that the LDAPCertStore class in the Security component of OpenJDK followed LDAP referrals to arbitrary URLs. A specially-crafted LDAP referral URL could cause LDAPCertStore to communicate with non-LDAP servers.
It was discovered that the Hotspot component of OpenJDK did not properly check for integer overflows when generating range check loop predicates. An untrusted Java application or applet could use this flaw to corrupt JVM memory and cause it to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code, bypassing Java sandbox restrictions.
A covert timing channel flaw was found in the DSA implementation in the JCE component of OpenJDK. A remote attacker able to make a Java application generate DSA signatures on demand could possibly use this flaw to extract certain information about the used key via a timing side channel.
Note that the fix for this issue reverts the fix for CVE-2016-5548 (see bug 1413920) and uses different approach to implement blinding of the DSA operations.
It was discovered that the JAR (Java ARchive) verifier in the Security component of OpenJDK did not correctly handle files inside archives with missing digest. An attacker could possibly use this flaw to manipulate content of a singed JAR, bypassing intended verification.
It was discovered that the Security component of OpenJDK could fail to properly enforce restrictions (specified using the jdk.certpath.disabledAlgorithms security property) defined for processing of X.509 certificate chains. A remote attacker could possibly use this flaw to make Java accept certificate using one of the disabled algorithms.
Oracle Java SE 6u161, 7u151, and 8u141 fixes an unspecified vulnerability in the JAX-WS component (CVE-2017-10243). Upstream has CVSS scored this issue as: 6.5/CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:L

A covert timing channel flaw was found in the PKCS#8 implementation in the JCE component of OpenJDK. A remote attacker able to make a Java application repeatedly compared PKCS#8 key against an attacker controlled value could possibly use this flaw to determine the key via a timing side channel.
It was discovered that the implementation of the CodeSource class in OpenJDK did not limit the amount of memory allocated when creating object instance from a serialized form. An untrusted Java application or applet could use this flaw to cause JVM to allocate an excessive amount of memory, bypassing certain Java sandbox restrictions.
It was discovered that the JPEGImageReader implementation in the 2D component of OpenJDK would, in certain cases, read all image data even if that was not used later. A specially crafted image could cause a Java application to temporarily use an excessive amount of CPU and memory.
It was discovered that the implementation of the BasicAttribute class in OpenJDK did not limit the amount of memory allocated when creating object instance from a serialized form. A specially-crafted serialized input stream could cause JVM to consume an excessive amount of memory.
Oracle Java SE 6u161, 7u151, and 8u141 fixes an unspecified vulnerability in the Deployment component (CVE-2017-10105). Upstream has CVSS scored this issue as: 4.3/CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N

A flaw was found in the way the Hotspot component of OpenJDK processed extraneous brackets in function signatures. An untrusted Java application or applet could use this flaw to bypass Java certain sandbox restrictions.
A flaw was found in the DisabledAlgorithmConstraints class in the Security component of OpenJDK. A key size constrained could not have been checked correctly in certain cases, causing weak key to be accepted. An untrusted Java application or applet could use this flaw to bypass certain Java sandbox restrictions.
