Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Apache Avro's Java SDK (org.apache.avro:avro) versions before 1.11.4 are vulnerable. An attacker who can supply a schema for parsing can execute arbitrary code. Upgrade to avro 1.11.4 or later, such as 1.12.0, which fix the issue.
