Descriptions

Unspecified vulnerability in the Java SE, Java SE Embedded, and JRockit components in Oracle Java SE 8u66; Java SE Embedded 8u65; and JRockit R28.3.8 allows remote attackers to affect confidentiality and integrity via unknown vectors related to Libraries.

Vulnerabilidad no especificada en los componentes Java SE, Java SE Embedded y JRockit en Oracle Java SE 8u66; Java SE Embedded 8u65; y JRockit R28.3.8 permite a atacantes remotos afectar a la confidencialidad y la integridad a través de vectores desconocidos relacionados con Libraries.

It was discovered that the password-based encryption (PBE) implementation in the Libraries component in OpenJDK used an incorrect key length. This could, in certain cases, lead to generation of keys that were weaker than expected.
