msgpack-java through 0.9.12 Integer Overflow via MAP32

Assigner: VulnCheck
Reserved: 12.09.2026 Published: 12.09.2026 Updated: 12.09.2026

msgpack-java through 0.9.12 contains an integer overflow vulnerability in MessageUnpacker.skipValue() when processing MAP32 containers with large element counts. Attackers can supply a MAP32 element count at or above 0x40000000 that wraps when doubled, causing the parser cursor to desynchronize and attacker-controlled data to be returned in place of later fields.
