description

Jackson Databind versions using class-name polymorphic deserialization can accept unapproved classes in generic arguments or array element types. An unauthenticated attacker who can submit JSON to a reachable affected deserialization path may cause attacker-selected classes to be instantiated, with impact dependent on the application's polymorphism settings and classpath.

mitigation

Upgrade com.fasterxml.jackson.core:jackson-databind to 2.18.12, 2.21.8, or 2.22.4, or tools.jackson.core:jackson-databind to 3.1.8 or 3.2.4. Until upgraded, disable class-name polymorphism for untrusted data and restrict subtype rules to narrowly approved types.

fixed in 2.18.12, 3.1.8, 2.21.8, 2.22.4, 3.2.4
