CVE-2026-89045
zstd-jni 1.4.8-4 through 1.5.7-13 Denial of Service via Negative Length
Description

zstd-jni versions 1.4.8-4 through 1.5.7-13 fail to validate negative length parameters in ZstdInputStreamNoFinalizer.read(), allowing attackers to trigger infinite loops. Attackers can pass negative length values to cause the read method to spin indefinitely while holding the stream monitor, blocking all other threads from accessing the stream.

Solution
Update zstd-jni to patch negative length parameter validation in ZstdInputStreamNoFinalizer.read().
  • Update zstd-jni to a version that validates negative length parameters.
  • Ensure negative length values are rejected by the read method.
