An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2020-27221 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: The Eclipse Foundation Eclipse OpenJ9. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-27221/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-27221/index.md)","id":"CVE-2020-27221","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-27221/index.md","name":"CVE-2020-27221","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-768g-gf3v-34vm"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Java virtual machine","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A stack-based buffer overflow in Eclipse OpenJ9 during UTF-8 conversion allows attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause denial of service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"eclipse","cpe":[{"product":"openj9","vendor":"eclipse"}],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-787","name":"Out-of-bounds Write"},{"id":"CWE-121","name":"Stack-based Buffer Overflow"}],"description":"In Eclipse OpenJ9 up to and including version 0.23, there is potential for a stack-based buffer overflow when the virtual machine or JNI natives are converting from UTF-8 characters to platform encoding.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Memory corruption in Eclipse OpenJ9","id":"CVE-2020-27221","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2020"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Denial of service in Eclipse Californium","id":"CVE-2020-27222"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Missing authorization in Eclipse Hono","id":"CVE-2020-27220"},"products":["Eclipse OpenJ9"],"published":"2021-01-21","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Security feature bypass in Eclipse OMR","id":"CVE-2021-41035","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-10-25"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in Eclipse OpenJ9","id":"CVE-2019-11772","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-07-17"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in Eclipse OpenJ9","id":"CVE-2018-12547","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-02-11"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Null dereference in Eclipse OpenJ9","id":"CVE-2018-12549","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-02-11"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in Eclipse OpenJ9","id":"CVE-2018-12548","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-01-31"},{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"Missing authorization in Eclipse OpenJ9","id":"CVE-2019-17631","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-10-17"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-04","vendors":["The Eclipse Foundation"]},"summary":"A stack-based buffer overflow in Eclipse OpenJ9 during UTF-8 conversion allows attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause denial of service.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-27221/"}
