Red Hat Product Errata RHSA-2010:0339 0 normal SHIPPED_LIVE Important: java-1.6.0-openjdk security update 2010-04-01 00:14:40 UTC

Comment 2 Murray McAllister 2010-03-31 15:17:47 UTC 
The equals method in the sun.security.util.ObjectIdentifier class does not
detect BER-encoded values (such OIDs) in DerInputStreams. This allows to bypass
access checks that rely on object equality. This is a defense in depth fix.
Comment 3 errata-xmlrpc 2010-04-01 00:15:13 UTC

  Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5

Comment 4 Marc Schoenefeld 2010-04-06 15:50:21 UTC 
Upstream does not consider this fix to be a security fix but rather a
preventive hardening patch.  Therefore, no CVE is planned to be assigned to
this issue.
