SCA: security update for at.yawk.lz4:lz4-java, org.lz4:lz4-java (GHSA-6cx8-rjf8-pr8g)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 473690

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - yawkat LZ4 Java provides LZ4 compression for Java. Prior to 1.11.2, LZ4DecompressorWithLength uses
 getDecompressedLength to trust the four-byte decompressed-length header before validating the compressed
 input, allowing a five-byte attacker-supplied input whose header declares a large output size to request
 up to approximately 2 GiB and exhaust the JVM heap. Convenience overloads backed by LZ4FastDecompressor or
 LZ4SafeDecompressor allocate the untrusted size, while overloads that write to a caller-provided
 destination buffer are not affected because the caller controls the destination size. This issue is fixed
 in version 1.11.2. (CVE-2026-106453)

Solution

Update the at.yawk.lz4:lz4-java library and its related packages to version 1.11.2 or later.
