CVE-2026-16243: Eclipse OMR : arraycmp SIMD implementation does not check if the number of bytes to compare is zero
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 22/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.52% (FIRST EPSS).
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. Special conditions such as timing or configuration are required.
- Fixed version: java-21-ibm-semeru-certified-jdk (Red Hat:enterprise_linux_eus:10.0) 1:21.0.12.0.8-1.el10_0; java-21-ibm-semeru-certified-jdk-headless (Red Hat:enterprise_linux_eus:10.0) 1:21.0.12.0.8-1.el10_0; java-21-ibm-semeru-certified-jdk (Red Hat:enterprise_linux:10.2) 1:21.0.12.0.8-2.el10_2.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to java-21-ibm-semeru-certified-jdk (Red Hat:enterprise_linux_eus:10.0) 1:21.0.12.0.8-1.el10_0; java-21-ibm-semeru-certified-jdk-headless (Red Hat:enterprise_linux_eus:10.0) 1:21.0.12.0.8-1.el10_0; java-21-ibm-semeru-certified-jdk (Red Hat:enterprise_linux:10.2) 1:21.0.12.0.8-2.el10_2 or later.
