NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream hdrhistogram package and not the hdrhistogram package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:12 relevant fixed versions and status.

A flaw has been found in HdrHistogram up to 2.2.2. This affects the function org.HdrHistogram.AbstractHistogram.decodeFromByteBuffer of the file src/main/java/org/HdrHistogram/AbstractHistogram.java. This manipulation of the argument numberOfSignificantValueDigits causes uncontrolled memory allocation. The attack can only be executed locally. The exploit has been published and may be used. The project was informed of the problem early through an issue report but has not responded yet.
