Doc Text:
A flaw was found in Google Guava. During Java object deserialization—the process of converting stored data back into active program objects—memory is eagerly allocated based on caller-specified size parameters without proper throttling or limits. An attacker can exploit this issue by providing a crafted serialization stream that consumes all available memory, triggering an out-of-memory error and causing a Denial of Service (DoS).

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-10-09 15:33:15 UTC
Allocation of resources without limits or throttling (CWE-770) during Java object deserialization in Google Guava versions 4.0 through 33.7.1 allows an attacker to cause a Denial of Service via OutOfMemoryError. When deserializing CompactHashMap, CompactHashSet, or MapMakerInternalMap instances, Guava eagerly allocates an array based on a caller-specified size parameter without throttling, permitting memory exhaustion from crafted serialization streams.
