NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream robocode package and not the robocode package as distributed by Ubuntu. See How to fix? for Ubuntu:18.04 relevant fixed versions and status.

Robocode through 1.9.3.5 allows remote attackers to cause external service interaction (DNS), as demonstrated by a query for a unique subdomain name within an attacker-controlled DNS zone, because of a .openStream call within java.net.URL.
