Description Alexander Bergmann 2014-02-11 15:31:31 UTC 
"Jakub Wilk reported in a Debian bug report that the unpack200 program included in OpenJDK did not properly handle the logfile properly.  If the the log file was unable to be opened, it would create /tmp/unpack.log instead as the fallback, but do so in an insecure manner, as shown in unpack.cpp."
