It was discovered that the UnixUriUtils class in the Libraries component of OpenJDK failed to sanitize strings containing slash characters when converting URIs to file system paths. An untrusted Java application or applet could use this flaw to bypass certain Java sandbox restrictions by creating Path objects with invalid paths.
A flaw was found in various components of OpenJDK in the way strings containing NULL characters were used. A specially-crafted input could lead a Java application to truncate strings incorrectly and misbehave, possibly impacting the integrity of the application.
It was discovered that the implementation of ProcesBuilder in the Libraries component of OpenJDK did not correctly process NULL characters in command name attributes. This could lead to manipulation of command arguments when executing processes with arguments from untrusted sources.
A flaw was found in the Security component of OpenJDK. It was discovered that the unmarshalKeyInfo() method of the DOMKeyInfoFactory class and the unmarshalXMLSignature() method of the DOMXMLSignatureFactory class could raise exceptions not declared as thrown by these methods when reading key info or XML signature data from XML input.
A flaw was found in the Serialization component of OpenJDK. The invokeWriteObject() method of the ObjectStreamClass method failed to catch InstantiationError exception during object stream deserialization, which could cause an unexpected exception to be raised when processing an untrusted serialized input.
A flaw was found in the Serialization component of OpenJDK. A reference to an uninitialized class descriptor encountered during object stream deserialization could cause an unexpected exception to be raised when processing an untrusted serialized input.
A flaw was found in the Nashorn JavaScript engine in the Scripting component of OpenJDK. The state machine of the regular expression Parser did not correctly handle empty string nodes in certain cases, which could cause an unexpected exception to be raised when processing a specially crafted regular expression.
A flaw was found in the Nashorn JavaScript engine in the Scripting component of OpenJDK. Processing of the forward references prior to checking for regular expression syntax errors could cause an unexpected exception to be raised when processing a specially crafted regular expression.
A flaw was discovered in the way the Libraries component of OpenJDK processed X.509 certificates. Values of Object Identifiers (OIDs) were "interned", possibly allowing a malicious X.509 certificate to trigger excessive memory usage in a Java application processing such certificate.
An unspecified vulnerability in Java SE related to the Java SE Networking component could allow an unauthenticated attacker to cause a denial of service resulting in a low availability impact using unknown attack vectors.
A flaw was found in the way the GssKrb5Base class in the Security component of OpenJDK validated properties of SASL messages included in Kerberos GSSAPI, omitting required token checks. An remote attacker with ability to manipulate network traffic between server and client using Kerberos GSSAPI could possibly perform message modification that would not be detected during message decoding.
A flaw was found in the what the BeanContextSupport class in the Serialization component of OpenJDK handled exceptions during deserialization. A specially-crafted input could cause a Java application to use an excessive amount of resources when deserialized.
