Improper Verification of Cryptographic Signature

CWE-347

In the following code, a JarFile object is created from a downloaded file.


               
JarFile jf = new JarFile(f);

The JAR file that was potentially downloaded from an untrusted source is created without verifying the signature (if present). An alternate constructor that accepts a boolean verify parameter should be used instead.
