Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
MariaDB Connector/J versions 3.0.0 through before 3.3.7, 3.4.0 through before 3.4.5, and 3.5.0 through before 3.5.10 mishandle 8-byte length-encoded integers from the server by truncating them to int without validation. A malicious or compromised server, or a man-in-the-middle, can send a value that wraps to a negative or arbitrary length, causing the client to crash with unchecked exceptions or make oversized allocations. Upgrade mariadb-java-client to 3.3.7, 3.4.5, 3.5.10, or later.
