Description Tomas Hoger 2016-07-15 08:55:53 EDT

It was discovered that the filterReturnValue() method of the MethodHandles in the Libraries component of OpenJDK did not properly check filter MethodHandle parameter count. An untrusted Java application or applet could use this flaw to bypass Java sandbox restrictions.

Comment 1 Tomas Hoger 2016-07-20 03:44:16 EDT

Public now via Oracle CPU July 2016, fixed in Oracle JDK 8u101.
