CVE-2019-2762

First published: Tue Jul 16 2019(Updated: )

It was discovered that the implementation of the Throwable class in the Utilities component of OpenJDK did not sufficiently validate serial stream before deserializing suppressed exceptions. A specially-crafted input could cause a Java application to construct inconsistent object and possibly use an excessive amount of system resources when deserialized.
