Description Tomas Hoger 2015-07-14 21:00:10 UTC
An unspecified flaw was found in the Libraries component in OpenJDK.  ObjectInputStream's readSerialData() could, in certain cases, incorrectly perform deserialization of data from serialized input.  An untrusted Java application or applet could use this flaw to bypass Java sandbox restrictions.

Public now via Oracle Critical Patch Update - July 2015.  Fixed in Oracle Java SE 6u101, 7u85, and 8u51.
