CVE-2021-22569 is fixed in 16 products on 1 platform, first by DEBIAN-CVE-2021-22569, released January 10, 2022. It is not reported as exploited. Patch Radar priority: Routine.
An issue in protobuf-java allowed the interleaving of com.google.protobuf.UnknownFieldSet fields in such a way that would be processed out of order. A small malicious payload can occupy the parser for several minutes by creating large numbers of short-lived objects that cause frequent, repeated pauses. We recommend upgrading libraries beyond the vulnerable versions.
