NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream hadoop-client-modules package and not the hadoop-client-modules package as distributed by Chainguard. See How to fix? for Chainguard relevant fixed versions and status.

An issue in protobuf-java allowed the interleaving of com.google.protobuf.UnknownFieldSet fields in such a way that would be processed out of order. A small malicious payload can occupy the parser for several minutes by creating large numbers of short-lived objects that cause frequent, repeated pauses. We recommend upgrading libraries beyond the vulnerable versions.
