Hi, found a bug in Properties.load that apparently has been around since Java 5. This patch adds proper bounds checking when decoding unicode sequences.
Bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8224240 Webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~redestad/8224240/open.00 Since the fix means a behavior change in the error handling of certain malformed property files, a CSR has been filed. Thanks! /Claes
