Description Tomas Hoger 2015-10-20 09:06:46 UTC
It was discovered that the 2D component of OpenJDK could perform out of bounds access and possibly disclose portions of the Java Virtual Machine memory when processing specially crafted color profiles.  The issue was caused by having bundled lcms2 code use fast floor() implementation.  An untrusted Java application or applet could use this flaw to bypass certain Java sandbox restrictions.

Comment 1 Tomas Hoger 2015-10-21 08:50:27 UTC
Public now via Oracle Critical Patch Update - October 2015.  Fixed in Oracle Java SE 7u91 and 8u65.
