Machine-written summary

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

Two Maven packages are affected: io.airlift:aircompressor-v3 before 3.4 and io.airlift:aircompressor before 2.0.3, in their Java Snappy and LZ4 decompressors. A remote attacker who supplies crafted compressed input can read leftover contents of a reused output buffer, which may expose sensitive data in applications that reuse buffers across calls. Upgrade aircompressor-v3 to 3.4 or aircompressor to 2.0.3; alternatively, stop reusing the decompression buffer or clear it before each decompression call.
