CVE-2020-14562

First published: Tue Jul 14 2020(Updated: )

It was discovered that the TIFF plugin in the ImageIO component of OpenJDK did not restrict the amount of memory allocated when reading TIFF image files. A specially-crafted TIFF file could cause a Java application using ImageIO to allocate an excessive amount of memory disproportionate to the image size.
