Description Laura Pardo 2018-04-25 18:30:45 UTC

A flaw was found in copy-jdk-configs when handling configuration files for jdk with multiple symlinks to jre. This could result in copy-jdk-configs restoring the config file for one jre symlink but, as the backup was already removed, remove the config files for the rest of the jre symlinks without restoring them.

Comment 1 Laura Pardo 2018-04-25 18:31:15 UTC

Created copy-jdk-configs tracking bugs for this issue:

Affects: fedora-all [bug 1571937]

Comment 3 jiri vanek 2018-04-26 08:20:06 UTC

As only openjdk7 + rhel7 is affected, I would consider this bug as invalid

Comment 4 Tomas Hoger 2018-05-03 20:28:50 UTC

This was not handled as a security issue, but as a bug.  Problem was addressed via the following bug fix advisory:
