snappy-java through 1.1.10.8 Buffer Overflow in Snappy.compress
Description

snappy-java through 1.1.10.8 contains a buffer overflow vulnerability in Snappy.compress(ByteBuffer, ByteBuffer) that writes past the end of the destination buffer. Attackers can supply incompressible data that exceeds the destination buffer's remaining capacity, corrupting off-heap memory and causing JVM termination.
