Summary

In Apache ORC 1.0.0 to 1.4.3 a malformed ORC file can trigger an endlessly recursive function call in the C++ or Java parser. The impact of this bug is most likely denial-of-service against software that uses the ORC file parser. With the C++ parser, the stack overflow might possibly corrupt the stack.

Exploit prediction (EPSS)

3.23% probability of exploitation in the next 30 days, higher than 88% of all scored CVEs.
