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.
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.
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 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.
A covert timing channel flaw was found in the ECDSA implementation in the JCE component of OpenJDK. A remote attacker able to make a Java application generate ECDSA signatures on demand could possibly use this flaw to extract certain information about the used key via a timing side channel.
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 Elliptic Curve (EC) cryptography implementation in the Security component of OpenJDK did not perform computations for certain points correctly. An attacker able to interact with a Java application using EC cryptography could possibly use this flaw to obtain information about the used key.
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
