CVE-2016-0636 OpenJDK 7 vulnerability
Title: OpenJDK 7 vulnerability
Summary: OpenJDK could be made to crash or run programs as your login if it received
specially crafted input.
A vulnerability was discovered in the JRE related to information
disclosure, data integrity, and availability. An attacker could exploit
these to cause a denial of service, expose sensitive data over the network,
or possibly execute arbitrary code.
Instructions: This update uses a new upstream release, which includes additional bug
fixes. After a standard system update you need to restart any Java
applications or applets to make all the necessary changes.

OpenJDK: missing type safety checks for MethodHandle calls across class loaders, incorrect CVE-2013-5838 fix (Hotspot, 8151666)
Unspecified vulnerability in Oracle Java SE 7u97, 8u73, and 8u74 allows remote attackers to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability via unknown vectors related to the Hotspot sub-component.
An improper type safety check was discovered in the Hotspot component. An untrusted Java application or applet could use this flaw to bypass Java Sandbox restrictions.

CVE-2016-0636 OpenJDK: missing type safety checks for MethodHandle calls across class loaders, incorrect CVE-2013-5838 fix (Hotspot, 8151666)
It was discovered that the security fix for CVE-2013-5838 was incomplete
and still allowed remote attackers to escape the Java security sandbox
mechanism.
The root problem is that the Reflection API does not properly guarantee
type safety when Method Handle objects were invoked across two different
Class Loader namespaces.
A part of the original patch was to use the "loadersAreRelated()" method
to ensure that the two Class Loaders are related, which is a condition
for correct type safety.
However, this condition could be easily fulfilled by abusing certain
behaviours in the class loading process, which could allow an attacker
to bypass the type s

CVE-2016-0636 [HIGH] Oracle Critical Patch Update April 2016 | Qualys
This week Oracle released their quarterly Critical Patch Update (CPU) for April 2016. The CPU addresses 136 vulnerabilities in 49 products, including Java, Solaris, several middleware products, VirtualBox, the MySQL database and the original Oracle database.
Oracle does not mention any vulnerabilities that are under known attacks, but points out that there was an out-of-band release for Java to fix CVE-2016-0636 last month.
Java is one of the software packages that are constantly under attack. Java as a full fledged programming languages gives the attacker a large attack surface and then a wide array of tools to continue post-exploitation. This update fixes nine vulnerabilities with the most three most critical sporting a CVSS of 9.6. The top three apply only to client deployments of Jav

Oracle published a new version of Java today. The new version Java v8 update 77 addresses a single critical vulnerability with CVE code CVE-2016-0636. This vulnerability had been disclosed publically 2 weeks ago on the fulldisclosure list by Adam Gowdiak, CEO of Security Explorations, a security research company, as a variant of an issue (CVE_2013-5838) that he reported to Oracle in 2013 and that was not fully fixed in Oracle’s patch.
Security Explorations has a technical document describing the issue and POC code for an exploit published on their website. They affirm that Java v7 and Java v9 are also affected by the vulnerability.
