A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:
o Ubuntu 19.04
o Ubuntu 18.10
o Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
o Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
Summary
Several security issues were fixed in OpenJDK.
Software Description
o openjdk-lts - Open Source Java implementation
o openjdk-8 - Open Source Java implementation
Details
It was discovered that the BigDecimal implementation in OpenJDK performed
excessive computation when given certain values. An attacker could use this to
cause a denial of service (excessive CPU usage). (CVE-2019-2602)
Corwin de Boor and Robert Xiao discovered that the RMI registry implementation
in OpenJDK did not properly select the correct skeleton class in some
situations. An attacker could use this to possibly escape Java sandbox
restrictions. (CVE-2019-2684)
Mateusz Jurczyk discovered a vulnerability in the 2D component of OpenJDK. An
attacker could use this to possibly escape Java sandbox restrictions. This
issue only affected OpenJDK 8 in Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. (CVE-2019-2697)
Mateusz Jurczyk discovered a vulnerability in the font layout engine of
OpenJDK's 2D component. An attacker could use this to possibly escape Java
