NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream java-17-openjdk-demo-slowdebug package and not the java-17-openjdk-demo-slowdebug package as distributed by RHEL.

zlib versions up to and including 1.3.1.2 include a global buffer overflow in the untgz utility located under contrib/untgz. The vulnerability is limited to the standalone demonstration utility and does not affect the core zlib compression library. The flaw occurs when a user executes the untgz command with an excessively long archive name supplied via the command line, leading to an out-of-bounds write in a fixed-size global buffer.
