> The {{jackson}} dependencies have to be upgraded to at least 2.18.9 due to

> data-binding functionality and tree-model for Jackson Data Processor. From
> 2.10.0 until 2.18.8, 2.21.4, and 3.1.4, jackson-databind's
> PolymorphicTypeValidator (PTV) is the primary safety mechanism guarding
> polymorphic deserialization. When polymorphic typing is enabled and a type
> identifier contains generic parameters (i.e. the type ID string contains <),
> DatabindContext._resolveAndValidateGeneric() validates only the raw container
> class name (the substring before <) against the configured PTV. If the
> container type is approved, the method parses the full canonical type string
> via TypeFactory.constructFromCanonical() and returns the fully parameterized
> type without ever validating the nested type arguments against the PTV. The
> nested type arguments are then resolved, instantiated, and populated as beans
> during deserialization. An attacker who controls the type ID can therefore
> place a denied class as a generic type parameter of an allowed container —
> for example java.util.ArrayList<com.evil.Gadget> when only
> java.util.ArrayList is allow-listed. The container passes the PTV check;
> com.evil.Gadget is loaded via Class.forName(name, true, loader),
> instantiated, and its properties are set from attacker-controlled JSON. This
> completely bypasses an explicitly configured PTV allow-list. This
