Overview
openjdk-jre is a free and open-source implementation of the Java Platform, Standard Edition (Java SE).
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling. A flaw was found in the way the Attributes class in the Libraries component performs reading of attributes with very long values from the JAR file manifests. A specially-crafted JAR archive could cause a Java application reading its manifest to use an excessive amount of system resources and hang.
