Description Stefan Cornelius 2014-04-14 10:36:07 UTC

It was discovered that direct method handles are not properly protected
against a certain use case. An untrusted Java application or applet
could possibly use this flaw to bypass call hierachies.

Fixed now in Oracle Java SE 7u55 and 8u5 via Oracle Critical Patch Update Advisory - April 2014.
