Google Guava: CompactHashMap/CompactHashSet/MapMakerInternalMap deserialization triggers uncontrolled memory allocation
CompactHashMap, CompactHashSet, and MapMakerInternalMap implement readObject(ObjectInputStream) by reading an attacker-controlled elementCount or initialCapacity from the stream. On the very first insertion during or after deserialization (for the CompactHash* collections, inside allocArrays()) or immediately during deserialization (for MapMakerInternalMap), the implementation eagerly allocates arrays sized to that full, unvalidated value (up to CompactHashing.MAX_SIZE = 2^30-1, ~1.07 billion, for example) before the rest of the stream's actual content has been consumed. A 72-byte …
