It was discovered that the JGSS component of OpenJDK did not properly hide Kerberos realm information from all error exceptions when running under Security Manager. An untrusted Java application or applet could use this flaw to obtain certain information about the Kerberos configuration on the host where they were executed, bypassing certain Java sandbox restrictions.
