iq80 Snappy is a compression/decompression library. When uncompressing
certain data, Snappy tries to read outside the bounds of the given byte
arrays. Because Snappy uses the JDK class sun.misc.Unsafe to speed up
memory access, no additional bounds checks are performed and this has
similar security consequences as out-of-bounds access in C or C++, namely
it can lead to non-deterministic behavior or crash the JVM. iq80 Snappy is
not actively maintained anymore. As quick fix users can upgrade to version
0.5.
