          This module exploits a vulnerability in HotSpot bytecode verifier where an invalid
          optimization of GETFIELD/PUTFIELD/GETSTATIC/PUTSTATIC instructions leads to insufficient
          type checks. This allows a way to escape the JRE sandbox, and load additional classes
          in order to perform malicious operations.
