Description Tomas Hoger 2014-10-10 11:15:09 EDT

An insufficient array boundary check flaw was discovered in the ICU library Layout Engine component, used as part of the 2D component in OpenJDK.  A specially-crafted font file could trigger an out of bounds read, which could lead to information disclosure or application crash.  A malicious Java application or applet could use this flaw to bypass certain Java sandbox restrictions.

Comment 1 Tomas Hoger 2014-10-14 16:14:00 EDT

Public now via Oracle Critical Patch Update - October 2014.  Fixed in Oracle Java SE 5.0u75, 6u85, 7u71, and 8u25.
