Doc Text:
A flaw was found in Snappy-java's fileSnappyInputStream hasNextChunk function, which does not sufficiently evaluate input bytes before beginning operations. This issue could allow an attacker to send malicious input to trigger an out of memory error that crashes the program, resulting in a denial of service.

Description Sandipan Roy 2023-06-16 04:10:26 UTC 
CVE-2023-34455 (https://github.com/xerial/snappy-java/security/advisories/GHSA-qcwq-55hx-v3vh):

The code in the function hasNextChunk in the fileSnappyInputStream.java checks if a given stream has more chunks to read. It does that by attempting to read 4 bytes. If it wasn’t possible to read the 4 bytes, the function returns false. Otherwise, if 4 bytes were available, the code treats them as the length of the next chunk.

In the case that the `compressed` variable is null, a byte array is allocated with the size given by the input data. Since the code doesn’t test the legality of the `chunkSize` variable, it is possible to pass a negative number (such as 0xFFFFFFFF which is -1), which will cause the code to raise a `java.lang.NegativeArraySizeException` exception. A worse case would happen when passing a huge positive value (such as 0x7FFFFFFF), which would raise the fatal `java.lang.OutOfMemoryError` error.
