Descriptions

In Eclipse OpenJ9 before version 0.41.0, the JVM can be forced into an infinite busy hang on a spinlock or a segmentation fault if a shutdown signal (SIGTERM, SIGINT or SIGHUP) is received before the JVM has finished initializing.

En Eclipse OpenJ9 anterior a la versión 0.41.0, la JVM puede verse forzada a un bloqueo de ocupación infinita en un bloqueo de giro o una falla de segmentación si se recibe una señal de apagado (SIGTERM, SIGINT o SIGHUP) antes de que la JVM haya terminado de inicializarse.

Eclipse OpenJ9 is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a flaw when a shutdown signal (SIGTERM, SIGINT or SIGHUP) is received before the JVM has finished initializing. By sending a specially crafted request, a local authenticated attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause an infinite busy hang on a spinlock or a segmentation fault.
