Description Tomas Hoger 2015-10-21 07:10:42 UTC
It was discovered that the AlgorithmChecker class in the Security component of OpenJDK failed to properly check if a certificate satisfies all defined constraints in certain cases.  This could cause a Java application to accept an X.509 certificate which does not meet requirements of the policy defined in the java.security file.

Comment 1 Tomas Hoger 2015-10-21 08:56:08 UTC
Public now via Oracle Critical Patch Update - October 2015.  Fixed in Oracle Java SE 6u105, 7u91, and 8u65.
