CVE-2026-82596Public exploit

Pause processing loss via oversized detected pause

Published Aug 31, 2026 · Updated Aug 31, 2026

Denial of service in Gil Tene LatencyUtils 2.0.0 through 2.0.3 allows local users to stop pause processing via an oversized detected pause. LatencyStats.recordDetectedPause passes a pause duration above highestTrackableLatency to an AtomicHistogram, causing an uncaught ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException. The exception terminates the PauseDetector dispatch thread, so the host application continues without subsequent pause notifications; exploitation requires local code execution in the affected JVM.
