Description Tomas Hoger 2018-10-15 08:36:45 EDT

It was discovered that the Scripting component of OpenJDK did not properly restrict access to scripting engine via Global object's engine variable when using Security Manager or class filtering.  An untrusted Java application or applet could use this flaw to bypass Java sandbox restrictions.
