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 Improper Input Validation. The ObjectInputStream class implementation in the Serialization component doesn't sufficiently validate data read from the input serialized stream when reading serialized exceptions. A specially-crafted serialized stream could use this flaw to bypass certain deserialization restrictions (defined via jdk.serialFilter system or security property).
