NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream java-1.7.1-ibm-jdbc package and not the java-1.7.1-ibm-jdbc package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

The crc32_big function in crc32.c in zlib 1.2.8 might allow context-dependent attackers to have unspecified impact via vectors involving big-endian CRC calculation.
