Technical details
The vulnerability is a denial-of-service infinite loop in Label.resolve() caused by 16-bit forward-reference offsets truncating when rewritten methods exceed 65535 bytes. An attacker supplies a class file whose transformed code grows past this threshold, triggering ClassReader.accept() to hang indefinitely. The issue stems from storing forward references with insufficient precision for large methods.
