description
Apache DataSketches C++ versions 3.1.0 through 5.2.x can read beyond supplied data while decoding compact Theta sketches. An attacker who can provide malformed or truncated sketches to an application may cause a denial of service or expose process memory contents; applications that do not deserialize untrusted Theta sketches are not affected.
mitigation
Upgrade apache/datasketches-cpp to version 5.3.0. Until upgraded, prevent untrusted sources from supplying Theta sketch data for deserialization.
outcome
Contextual: an exploit technique exists, but no deterministic check could cover this one.
source signals
Public signals that triggered or updated the pipeline. These are inputs for the deltas above.
