🦉 Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling

[snyk-io]

This upgrade of the Jackson libraries from version 2.15.2 to 2.18.6 is a minor version update that includes several notable changes and potential breaking behavioral shifts.

Key Changes & Risks:

• Kotlin Version Support: Jackson 2.18 drops support for Kotlin 1.7.x. If your project uses Kotlin, you must ensure you are using version 1.8, 1.9, or 2.0 to maintain compatibility.
• Stricter Number Deserialization: As of version 2.17, Jackson has stricter rules for coercing numbers from strings. For example, a string with a leading zero like "07" will no longer be deserialized as a numeric type (like an Enum index). This could lead to JsonMappingException if your application relies on this behavior.
• Internal Property Introspection Rewrite: Version 2.18 includes a major internal rewrite of the POJO property introspection logic. While this was done to fix long-standing bugs, such a significant change introduces a risk of subtle, unintended behavioral changes in serialization and deserialization. Several bug fixes related to this rewrite were issued in patch releases, which are included in this upgrade.
• Security-Related Default Change: In version 2.16, the default for StreamReadFeature.INCLUDE_SOURCE_IN_LOCATION was changed to false to avoid leaking information in error messages.

Recommendation:
This upgrade carries a medium risk. It is critical to verify your project's Kotlin version if applicable. Thorough regression testing is strongly recommended, with a focus on deserialization logic, especially for objects with custom creators, complex constructors, and enums mapped from numeric strings.
