Descriptions

Unspecified vulnerability in Oracle Java SE 6u121, 7u111, 8u102; and Java SE Embedded 8u101 allows remote attackers to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability via vectors related to Hotspot, a different vulnerability than CVE-2016-5582.

Vulnerabilidad no especificada en Oracle Java SE 6u121, 7u111, 8u102 y Java SE Embedded 8u101 permite a atacantes remotos afectar la confidencialidad, la integridad y la disponibilidad a través de vectores relacionados con Hotspot, una vulnerabilidad diferente a CVE-2016-5582.

It was discovered that the Hotspot component of OpenJDK did not properly check received Java Debug Wire Protocol (JDWP) packets. An attacker could possibly use this flaw to send debugging commands to a Java program running with debugging enabled if they could make victim's browser send HTTP requests to the JDWP port of the debugged application.
