NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream icedtea-web-javadoc package and not the icedtea-web-javadoc package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

It was found that icedtea-web up to and including 1.7.2 and 1.8.2 was vulnerable to a zip-slip attack during auto-extraction of a JAR file. An attacker could use this flaw to write files to arbitrary locations. This could also be used to replace the main running application and, possibly, break out of the sandbox.
