JITServer: Pre-authentication remote Denial of Service via integer overflow infinite loop in MessageBuffer::computeRequiredCapacity()

Published Oct 21, 2026 · Updated Oct 26, 2026 · Assigned by eclipse

Description

In Eclipse OpenJ9 versions prior to 0.63.0, the JITServer component is vulnerable to a pre-authentication remote denial of service. When processing the initial 4-byte length field of an incoming TCP connection, an integer overflow in `MessageBuffer::computeRequiredCapacity()` causes the receiving compilation worker thread to enter an infinite loop consuming ~100% CPU. An unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit this by opening a small number of crafted TCP connections to exhaust the entire worker thread pool, silently halting compilation services for all connected client JVMs.
