Description

A flaw was found in jackson-core. A user could exploit this vulnerability by supplying a specially crafted JSON document with excessive nesting. This bypasses a security constraint designed to limit nesting depth, which can cause a system crash (StackOverflowError) when the document is processed. This ultimately leads to a Denial of Service (DoS) for the affected application.
