Description

The cached FilterProvider of an entity type keeps an internal state to control nested rendering. When a thread is doing a stack.clear() and at the same time another thread is doing a stack.peek() it throws an exception, causing a failure during rendering of fields at BeanSerializerBase.
#### Affected Versions
[2.22]

Research direction

Start by inspecting JacksonFilteringFeature and the rendering path at BeanSerializerBase, focusing on the shared FilterProvider state and concurrent stack.clear() and stack.peek() operations. Reproduce the failure with concurrent rendering; done means responses are complete and no rendering exception occurs.
