Debian: DSA-2987-2: openjdk-7 regression update
The previous security update for OpenJDK 7, DSA-2987-1, introduced a regression due to an overly strict bytecode verifier. As a result, legitimate bytecode which is produced by some non-Java languages would no longer run.

As a result, legitimate bytecode which is produced by some non-Java languages would no longer run. For the stable distribution (wheezy), this problem has been fixed in version 7u65-2.5.1-5~deb7u1. We recommend that you upgrade your openjdk-7 packages.
