could possibly use this flaw to bypass Java sandbox restrictions.
(CVE-2013-5907)
Multiple improper permission check issues were discovered in the CORBA,
JNDI, and Libraries components in OpenJDK. An untrusted Java application or
applet could use these flaws to bypass Java sandbox restrictions.

Multiple improper permission check issues were discovered in the
Serviceability, Security, CORBA, JAAS, JAXP, and Networking components in
OpenJDK. An untrusted Java application or applet could use these flaws to
bypass certain Java sandbox restrictions. (CVE-2014-0373, CVE-2013-5878,
CVE-2013-5910, CVE-2013-5896, CVE-2013-5884, CVE-2014-0416, CVE-2014-0376,
CVE-2014-0368)

(CVE-2014-0423)
It was discovered that the JSSE component could leak timing information
during the TLS/SSL handshake. This could possibly lead to disclosure of
information about the used encryption keys. (CVE-2014-0411)
Note: The java-1.7.0-openjdk package shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux
6.5 via RHBA-2013:1611 replaced “java7” with “java” in the provides list.
This update re-adds “java7” to the provides list to maintain backwards
compatibility with releases prior to Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.5.
Note: If the web browser plug-in provided by the icedtea-web package was
installed, the issues exposed via Java applets could have been exploited
without user interaction if a user visited a malicious website.
All users of java-1.7.0-openjdk are advised to upgrade to these updated
packages, which resolve these issues. All running instances of OpenJDK Java
must be restarted for the update to take effect.
