Description
The issue might allow a denial of service via a crafted JSON document. For example, a document such as {"a": true, "b": [ null,9999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999912345678901234567]} could be used.
Recommendations
For cJSON version 1.7.15, as a temporary workaround, consider validating JSON documents to prevent excessively large values in arrays, such as the
b array in the example, until a patch is available. Found an issue in the description? Have something to add? Feel free to write us 👾
