Bump jackson-databind to 2.18.9 (CVE-2026-54515) - #325
Merged
Conversation
Fixes GHSA-5jmj-h7xm-6q6v: per-property @JsonIgnoreProperties exclusions were silently discarded when combined with per-property @jsonformat(ACCEPT_CASE_INSENSITIVE_PROPERTIES), making ignored properties writable again (mass-assignment risk, CWE-915). jackson-core and jackson-annotations align to 2.18.9 via the BOM.

com.fasterxml.jackson.core:jackson-databindfrom 2.18.8 → 2.18.9 ingradle/libs.versions.toml.jackson-coreandjackson-annotationsalign to 2.18.9 via the jackson BOM.Why — CVE-2026-54515 / GHSA-5jmj-h7xm-6q6v (Medium, CVSS 5.3, CWE-915)
In jackson-databind ≥2.8.0 <2.18.9,
BeanDeserializerBase.createContextual()applies per-property@JsonIgnorePropertiesexclusions (producing a filteredBeanPropertyMap), but the subsequent per-property case-insensitivity block (triggered by@JsonFormat(ACCEPT_CASE_INSENSITIVE_PROPERTIES)) rebuilds the map from the original unfiltered_beanProperties— silently restoring the ignored properties and making them writable from attacker-controlled JSON (mass-assignment).Fixed in 2.18.9 (also 2.21.5 / 3.1.4 for newer lines).
