Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Uncaught Exception. A flaw was found in the DerInputStream class in the Libraries component of OpenJDK. A DER (Distinguished Encoding Rules) encoded input using indefinite length encoding not supported by the DerInputStream could cause it to raise an exception not declared to be thrown by the DerInputStream.
