             Summary: Change io.compressor.LZ4Compressor to LZ4SafeDecompressor
                 Key: CASSANDRA-15560
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-15560
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Feature/Compression
            Reporter: Jordan West
            Assignee: Jordan West


CASSANDRA-15556 and related tickets showed that LZ4FastDecompressor can crash 
the JVM and that LZ4SafeDecompressor performs better w/o the crash risk — its 
also not deprecated. While we protect ourselves by checksumming the compressed 
data but that doesn’t mean we should leave deprecated code that can segfault 
the jvm (providing a potential DDOS vector among other things) in crucial 
places like io.compress.
