Why do I get Java exception java.lang.​NoSuchMeth​odError: javax.medi​a.opengl.G​LCapabilit​ies when using CFTOOL in the Curve Fitting Toolbox 3.4 (R2013b)?

I'm trying to use cftool to fit a simple data set with a line. The App finds a fit but the plot window in the App is empty. Also, I get these error messages in my MATLAB command window:

This is a bug in the Curve Fitting Toolbox R2013b which is caused due to some other version of JOGL shadowing the one installed by MATLAB.
