CVE-2024-21098Network attack vector

Unauthenticated partial service interruption

Published Apr 16, 2024 · Updated Nov 15, 2024

Compiler denial of service in affected Oracle GraalVM editions allows remote attackers to cause a partial service interruption. Oracle has not disclosed the faulty compiler operation or the network-delivered input that triggers it. Affected builds are GraalVM for JDK 17.0.10, 21.0.2, and 22 and GraalVM Enterprise Edition 20.3.13 and 21.3.9; exploitation requires no credentials or user interaction but has high attack complexity.
