LZ4 Java: Native XXHash implementations can crash the JVM when passed invalid byte array ranges

Insufficient validation of byte array arguments in JNI-based XXHash implementations in lz4-java 1.11.0 and earlier allows callers to crash the JVM by passing an invalid array reference or invalid range to native XXHash methods. This affects applications where an attacker can influence the byte array object or the off / len arguments passed to affected XXHash APIs. It does not affect the common case where only the contents of a …

yawkat LZ4 Java has a possible information leak in Java safe decompressor

Insufficient clearing of the output buffer in Java-based decompressor implementations in lz4-java 1.10.0 and earlier allows remote attackers to read previous buffer contents via crafted compressed input. In applications where the output buffer is reused without being cleared, this may lead to disclosure of sensitive data. JNI-based implementations are not affected.

LZ4 Java Compression has Out-of-bounds memory operations which can cause DoS

Out-of-bounds memory operations in org.lz4:lz4-java 1.8.0 and earlier allow remote attackers to cause denial of service and read adjacent memory via untrusted compressed input. This is fixed in a forked release: at.yawk.lz4:lz4-java version 1.8.1. The original project has been archived: https://github.com/lz4/lz4-java, and Sonatype has added a redirect from org.lz4:lz4-java:1.8.1 to the new group ID.
