CVE-2022-1452Public exploit

Memory disclosure or crash via truncated Java attribute

Published Apr 24, 2022 · Updated Aug 3, 2024

Out-of-bounds read in radare2 before 5.7.0 allows local users to disclose process memory or crash the tool via a crafted Java class file. The r_bin_java_bootstrap_methods_attr_new parser reads the two-byte bootstrap-method count after advancing its offset without first checking that eight bytes remain in the input buffer. A user must open or analyze the file; the over-read can expose adjacent process data or terminate that radare2 process, with no reported integrity impact.
