NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream tika package and not the tika package as distributed by Debian.

Apache Tika before 1.14 allows Java code execution for serialized objects embedded in MATLAB files. The issue exists because Tika invokes JMatIO to do native deserialization.
