Description

In Eclipse OpenJ9 versions up to 0.47, the JNI function GetStringUTFLength may return an incorrect value which has wrapped around. From 0.48 the value is correct but may be truncated to include a smaller number of characters.

• CWE-190Integer Overflow or WraparoundThe product performs a calculation that can produce an integer overflow or wraparound when the logic assumes that the resulting value will always be larger than the original value. This occurs when an integer value is incremented to a value that is too large to store in the associated representation. When this occurs, the value may become a very small or negative number.
