How to fix?

Upgrade org.graalvm.sdk:graal-sdk to version 17.0.12, 21.0.4, 22.0.2 or higher.

Overview

org.graalvm.sdk:graal-sdk is a high-performance JDK distribution designed to accelerate the execution of applications written in Java and other JVM languages along with support for JavaScript, Ruby, Python, and a number of other popular languages.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Buffer Overflow due to improper handling of UTF8 size calculations. An attacker can cause a disruption of service by sending specially crafted inputs that exploit this overflow condition.

Exploiting this vulnerability is possible by using the Hotspot APIs through a web service which supplies data to this API. This vulnerability also applies to Java deployments, typically in clients running sandboxed Java Web Start applications or sandboxed Java applets, that load and run untrusted code (e.g., code that comes from the internet) and rely on the Java sandbox for security.
