Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
Netty is an open-source, asynchronous event-driven network application framework. The package `io.netty:netty-codec-http` prior to version 4.1.77.Final contains an insufficient fix for CVE-2021-21290. When Netty's multipart decoders are used local information disclosure can occur via the local system temporary directory if temporary storing uploads on the disk is enabled. This only impacts applications running on Java version 6 and lower. Additionally, this vulnerability impacts code running on Unix-like systems, and very old versions of Mac OSX and Windows as they all share the system temporary directory between all users. Version 4.1.77.Final contains a patch for this vulnerability. As a workaround, specify one's own `java.io.tmpdir` when starting the JVM or use DefaultHttpDataFactory.setBaseDir(...) to set the directory to something that is only readable by the current user.

Recommended fix High confidence

Netty 4.1.77.Final (or latest 4.1.x stable release)

  1. Identify all Java applications in your environment that depend on io.netty:netty-codec-http or the broader netty package with version < 4.1.77.Final
  2. For Maven-based projects, update the Netty dependency in pom.xml: change version to 4.1.77.Final or later (e.g., <version>4.1.77.Final</version>)
  3. For Gradle-based projects, update build.gradle: change 'io.netty:netty-codec-http:...' to 'io.netty:netty-codec-http:4.1.77.Final' or later
  4. Rebuild and redeploy all affected applications
  5. For the listed NetApp products (Active Iq Unified Manager, Oncommand Workflow Automation, Snapcenter), contact NetApp support for product-specific patches as they may bundle Netty internally
  6. For Oracle Financial Services Crime And Compliance Management Studio 8.0.8.2.0 and 8.0.8.3.0, contact Oracle for patches or upgrade to a fixed version
  7. If immediate upgrade is not possible, mitigate by setting a secure temp directory: add -Djava.io.tmpdir=/path/to/secure/dir when starting the JVM (ensure directory has restricted permissions readable only by the application user)
  8. Verify the fix by confirming Netty version loaded at runtime matches 4.1.77.Final or later
Caveat Review Netty 4.1.77 release notes for any breaking changes; minor version upgrades within 4.1.x typically have minimal breaking changes but test in non-production first
