REDHAT-BUG-2041897
First published: Tue Jan 18 2022(Updated: )
It was discovered that the ObjectInputStream class implementation in the Serialization component of OpenJDK did not sufficiently validate data read from the input serialized stream when reading serialized exceptions. A specially-crafted serialized stream could use this flaw to bypass certain deserialization restrictions (defined via jdk.serialFilter system or security property).
