Description Tomas Hoger 2016-10-17 09:59:11 UTC 
It was discovered that the Hotspot component of OpenJDK did not properly check Java Debug Wire Protocol (JDWP) packets, which could possibly allow HTTP requests issues by a web browser to be interpreted as valid JDWP messages.  An attacker could possibly use this flaw to send debugging commands to a Java program or applet running with debugging enabled if they could make victim's browser send HTTP requests to the JDWP port of the debugged application.
Comment 1 Tomas Hoger 2016-10-18 20:09:48 UTC 
Public now via Oracle CPU October 2016, fixed in Oracle JDK 8u111, 7u121, and 6u131.
