Ion Java StackOverflow vulnerability
CVE-2024-21634
7.5HIGH
What is CVE-2024-21634?
A potential denial-of-service vulnerability exists in the Amazon Ion library, specifically in versions prior to 1.10.5 of the ion-java implementation. This issue arises when applications attempt to deserialize Ion text encoded data or transform Ion text or binary data into the IonValue model. If an attacker crafts malicious Ion data, loading it into an affected application can trigger a StackOverflowError when specific IonValue methods are invoked. To mitigate this issue, it is crucial to avoid processing data from untrusted sources or data that may have been compromised. Users are strongly advised to upgrade to ion-java version 1.10.5 or later to incorporate the necessary patch.
