Thank you for reporting this issue. However I don't think that it is
important enough to warrant another immediate upload of
mysql-connector-java. We could include this fix in a future update
though, should there be another security vulnerability. Please note that
OpenJDK 8 is not supported in Wheezy and we have just switched from
OpenJDK 6 to OpenJDK 7.

Regards,

Markus
