How to fix?

Upgrade openjdk-jre to version 7.0.331, 8.0.321, 11.0.14, 17.0.2 or higher.

Overview

openjdk-jre is a free and open-source implementation of the Java Platform, Standard Edition (Java SE).

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Integer Overflow or Wraparound. A flaw was found in the BMPImageReader class implementation in the ImageIO component, which allows a specially-crafted BMP image to bypass previously applied protection and cause a Java application to allocate an excessive amount of memory when opened.

Note:

this is due to an incomplete fix for CVE-2021-35586.
