Description
zstd-jni versions before 1.5.7-14 fail to validate offset and length parameters in the ZstdDictCompress constructor, allowing out-of-bounds memory reads. Attackers can supply untrusted offset or length values to read native heap memory into the compression dictionary, typically causing JVM crashes.
Public exploit
An exploit or proof of concept is public: anyone can try it against an unpatched system. A reference of the record is tagged as an exploit. CISA's SSVC rates its exploitation: a proof of concept is public.
