Description:


   This update for OpenJDK 10.0.2 fixes the following security issues:

   - CVE-2018-2940: the libraries sub-component contained an easily
     exploitable vulnerability that allowed attackers to compromise Java SE
     or Java SE Embedded over the network, potentially gaining unauthorized
     read access to data that's accessible to the server. [bsc#1101645]

   - CVE-2018-2952: the concurrency sub-component contained a difficult to
     exploit vulnerability that allowed attackers to compromise Java SE, Java
     SE Embedded,
     or JRockit over the network. This issue could have been abused to mount
      a partial denial-of-service attack on the server. [bsc#1101651]

   - CVE-2018-2972: the security sub-component contained a difficult to
     exploit vulnerability that allowed attackers to compromise Java SE over
     the network, potentially gaining unauthorized access to critical data or
     complete access to all Java SE accessible data. [bsc#1101655)

   - CVE-2018-2973: the JSSE sub-component contained a difficult to exploit
     vulnerability allowed attackers to compromise Java SE or Java SE Embedded
     over the network, potentially gaining the ability to create, delete or
      modify critical data or all Java SE, Java SE Embedded accessible data
      without authorization. [bsc#1101656]

   Furthemore, the following bugs were fixed:

   - Properly remove the existing alternative for java before reinstalling
     it. [bsc#1096420]

   - idlj was moved to the *-devel package. [bsc#1096420]
