Two improper permission check issues were discovered in the reflection API
in OpenJDK. An untrusted Java application or applet could use these flaws
to bypass Java sandbox restrictions. (CVE-2012-3174, CVE-2013-0422)

This erratum also upgrades the OpenJDK package to IcedTea7 2.3.4. Refer to
the NEWS file, linked to in the References, for further information.

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.

4. Solution:

Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.

This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to
