Description Stefan Cornelius 2012-06-06 14:56:00 UTC 
The HotSpot Java Virtual Machine (JVM) did not properly verify bytecode invokespecial <init> instructions.  A specially-crafted class file could use this flaw to skip calls to super class constructor, possibly allowing it to bypass Java sandbox restrictions.
