Inefficient Algorithmic Complexity Affecting org.ow2.asm:asm package, versions [3.0,9.11)
Threat Intelligence
The probability is the direct output of the EPSS model, and conveys an overall sense of the threat of exploitation in the wild. The percentile measures the EPSS probability relative to all known EPSS scores. Note: This data is updated daily, relying on the latest available EPSS model version. Check out the EPSS documentation for more details.

Upgrade org.ow2.asm:asm to version 9.11 or higher.
Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Inefficient Algorithmic Complexity via the computeAllFrames() and computeMaxStackAndLocal() methods in MethodWriter. When ASM processes a crafted class file with thousands of overlapping exception handlers using COMPUTE_FRAMES or COMPUTE_MAXS, it allocates excessive Edge objects, causing an OutOfMemoryError that crashes the JVM.
