Hi, The following vulnerability was published for json-smart. CVE-2023-1370[0]: | [Json-smart](https://netplex.github.io/json-smart/) is a performance | focused, JSON processor lib. When reaching a &#8216;[&#8216; | or &#8216;{&#8216; character in the JSON input, the code | parses an array or an object respectively. It was discovered that the | code does not have any limit to the nesting of such arrays or objects. | Since the parsing of nested arrays and objects is done recursively, | nesting too many of them can cause a stack exhaustion (stack overflow) | and crash the software. If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.
