CVE-2021-37136

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Bzip2Decoder (affected versions not specified)

Description The Bzip2 decompression decoder function doesn't allow setting size restrictions on the decompressed output data, which affects the allocation size used during decompression. All users of Bzip2Decoder are affected. The malicious input can trigger an OutOfMemoryError (OOME) and thus a Denial of Service (DoS) attack.

Recommendations As a temporary workaround, consider not using the Bzip2Decoder until a patch is available. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
