It was discovered that the implementation of UntypedObjectDeserializer in jackson-databind, a fast and powerful JSON library for Java, was prone to a denial of service attack when deeply nested object and array values were processed.



For Debian 8 jessie, these problems have been fixed in version 2.4.2-2+deb8u17.

We recommend that you upgrade your jackson-databind packages.
