A fix is available — apply it.

zstd-jni versions before 1.5.7-14 fail to validate closed state in setDict, setLongMax, setLevel and setRefMultipleDDicts methods of stream classes. Attackers can call these methods on closed streams to write through freed native pointers, corrupting unrelated objects or crashing the JVM.

A fix is available. Apply it within your standard update timelines at low or medium mission impact and sooner than that at high.

Exploitation none (no KEV listing, exploit record or EPSS ≥ 50%) · Automatable unknown (not published for this CVE) · Technical impact partial (CVSS below 9.0). Mission impact is CISA's Mission & Well-being decision point, and only you can judge it: high means the affected system is essential to your organisation's mission, or its compromise could cause irreversible harm to people.
