NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream rust package and not the rust package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:10 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.
