CVE-2026-87823
zstd-jni 1.1.1 through 1.5.7-13 Out-of-Bounds Read via Direct ByteBuffer Frame-Size Methods
Description
zstd-jni before 1.5.7-14 performs 32-bit signed bounds checks on three direct-ByteBuffer frame-size native methods, allowing out-of-bounds memory reads via negative or overflowing offsets. Attackers can supply negative offset values near Integer.MIN_VALUE to read unmapped memory, causing JVM termination or extracting arbitrary frame size data from unintended memory locations.
