How to fix?

Upgrade Wolfi druid to version 37.0.0-r14 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream druid package and not the druid package as distributed by Wolfi. See How to fix? for Wolfi relevant fixed versions and status.

A parsing issue with binary data in protobuf-java core and lite versions prior to 3.21.7, 3.20.3, 3.19.6 and 3.16.3 can lead to a denial of service attack. Inputs containing multiple instances of non-repeated embedded messages with repeated or unknown fields causes objects to be converted back-n-forth between mutable and immutable forms, resulting in potentially long garbage collection pauses. We recommend updating to the versions mentioned above.
