Description Tomas Hoger 2016-01-28 11:51:56 UTC
The following flaw was reported for IBM JDK:

A flaw in the IBM J9 JVM allows code to invoke non-public interface methods under certain circumstances. Untrusted code could potentially exploit this. This could lead to sensitive data being exposed to an attacker, or the attacker being able to inject bad data.

http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/java/jdk/alerts/#IBM_Security_Update_January_2016

This flaw could allow an untrusted Java application or applet to bypass certain Java sandbox restrictions.

Issue was fixed in IBM JDK 6 SR16-FP20, 7 SR9-FP30, 7R1 SR3-FP30, and 8 SR2-FP10.
