Looking at https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8148516, I'm not
seeing a CVE number attached. In addition, this issue is marked as an
"enhancement".

Would it be possible to confirm how an enhancement ended up inside a
security release?

  This bug seems to be the same as the one described in:
  - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1422738
  - https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8173783
  - http://icedtea.classpath.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3329

  It looks like this was introduced by adding open-jdk 7u131-2.6.9-0 to
  http://eu-west-1.ec2.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/o/openjdk-7/


  EDIT: WORKAROUND

  The original workaround steps no longer work because the required
  package has been removed from http://eu-
  west-1.ec2.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/o/openjdk-7.

  The new steps make you use the repository at
  https://launchpad.net/~openjdk-r/+archive/ubuntu/ppa.

  $ gpg --ignore-time-conflict --no-options --no-default-keyring --secret-keyring /etc/apt/secring.gpg --trustdb-name /etc/
  apt/trustdb.gpg --keyring /etc/apt/trusted.gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv DA1A4A13543B466853BAF164EB9B1D8886F44E2A

  $ echo "deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/openjdk-r/ppa/ubuntu trusty main 
  deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/openjdk-r/ppa/ubuntu trusty main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/openjdk-r-ppa.list

  $ apt-get update

  $ apt-get install openjdk-7-jre-headless=7u121-2.6.8-1~14.04

  $ service puppetserver restart

  > 3) What you expected to happen

  We expected this command to return certificate information for a web
  server:

  $ openssl s_client -showcerts -connect "$(hostname -f):8140"

  > 4) What happened instead

  The command failed and the webserver had a Java stack trace (see
  above).
