(edit) 
It was found that the HttpURLConnection and HttpsURLConnection classes in the Networking component of OpenJDK failed to check for newline characters embedded in URLs. An attacker able to make a Java application perform an HTTP request using an attacker provided URL could possibly inject additional headers into the request.

Description Tomas Hoger 2017-10-16 12:37:35 UTC 
It was found that the HttpURLConnection and HttpsURLConnection classes implementations in the Networking component of OpenJDK failed to check for newline characters embedded in URLs.  An attacker able to make a Java application to perform an HTTP request to an attacker provided URL could possibly inject additional headers into the request.
