Source description

As published by the source; long descriptions are shortened.

Those using Jettison to parse untrusted XML or JSON data may be vulnerable to Denial of Service attacks (DOS). If the parser is running on user supplied input, an attacker may supply content that causes the parser to crash by stackoverflow. This effect may support a denial of service attack.

# Patch Next advisory brief: GHSA-xqcq-j8w9-3pxv

Advisory: Jettison parser crash by stackoverflow
IDs: GHSA-xqcq-j8w9-3pxv
Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/ghsa-xqcq-j8w9-3pxv (revision 1, source checked 26 Oct 2026, 16:11 UTC)
Inventory: none attached. This brief comes from a public page and does not say whether any deployment is affected.
Severity: Medium (CVSS 6.5)
Exploitation: no confirmed exploitation recorded. Patch Next confirms exploitation only from CISA KEV.
Vendor response: Vendor response not established. A vendor fix does not mean a deployment is fixed.

## Affected components
- Maven com.tencyle.fixes:org.codehaus.jettison--jettison: affected >= 1.1-tencyle-2.1.0, <= 1.1-tencyle-2.1.0

## Suggested inspection (read-only)
- Maven com.tencyle.fixes:org.codehaus.jettison--jettison: check the installed version with your package manager.

## Supported action
No complete vendor fix is recorded. Follow the primary source's mitigation guidance and check this record again before closing anything.

## Required regression checks
- Run the test suite and a production build.
- Exercise the features that depend on com.tencyle.fixes:org.codehaus.jettison--jettison.
- Repeat the inspection and confirm that only fixed versions remain installed.

## Rollback considerations
- Keep the previous lockfile and deployment artifact. Rolling back reinstates the vulnerable version, so apply any documented mitigation while you fix forward.

## Unresolved questions
- Which deployments run an affected version?
- Exploitation status can change. Check again before lowering the priority.
- Mark the work resolved only after the fixed version is verified in production.
