CVE-2026-87824 (GCVE-0-2026-87824)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-09-09 14:32 – Updated: 2026-09-09 14:32

Title
zstd-jni 1.3.3-1 through 1.5.7-13 Out-of-Bounds Read via Zstd.trainFromBufferDirect
Summary
zstd-jni before 1.5.7-14 fails to validate the samples buffer capacity in Zstd.trainFromBufferDirect, allowing attackers to read past buffer boundaries by supplying oversized per-sample lengths. Attackers can trigger out-of-bounds memory access by providing crafted sample length arrays that cause the native implementation to walk past the buffer allocation, resulting in JVM termination.
