CVE-2026-29062 Details
Description
jackson-core contains core low-level incremental ("streaming") parser and generator abstractions used by Jackson Data Processor. From version 3.0.0 to before version 3.1.0, the UTF8DataInputJsonParser, which is used when parsing from a java.io.DataInput source, bypasses the maxNestingDepth constraint (default: 500) defined in StreamReadConstraints. A similar issue was found in ReaderBasedJsonParser. This allows a user to supply a JSON document with excessive nesting, which can cause a StackOverflowError when the structure is processed, leading to a Denial of Service (DoS). This issue has been patched in version 3.1.0.
A denial-of-service vulnerability has been identified in Jackson Core versions 3.0.0 prior to 3.1.0. The issue arises in the UTF8DataInputJsonParser and ReaderBasedJsonParser, where the parsers bypass the maximum nesting depth constraint defined in StreamReadConstraints. This flaw allows a user to supply a JSON document with excessive nesting, which can lead to a StackOverflowError when processed, causing a denial-of-service condition.
Users are advised to upgrade to Jackson Core version 3.1.0, where this vulnerability has been patched. Instructions for upgrading can be found in the Jackson Core repository on GitHub.
