Description Tomas Hoger 2020-07-14 21:58:18 UTC
A flaw was found in the DerInputStream class in the Libraries component of OpenJDK.  A DER (Distinguished Encoding Rules) encoded input using indefinite length encoding not supported by the DerInputStream could cause it to raise an exception not declared to be thrown by the DerInputStream.
