CVE-2023-1370
Vulnerable Library - json-smart-2.4.7.jar
JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight data-interchange format. It is easy for humans to read and write. It is easy for machines to parse and generate. It is based on a subset of the JavaScript Programming Language, Standard ECMA-262 3rd Edition - December 1999. JSON is a text format that is completely language independent but uses conventions that are familiar to programmers of the C-family of languages, including C, C++, C#, Java, JavaScript, Perl, Python, and many others. These properties make JSON an ideal data-interchange language.

Vulnerability Details
Json-smart is a performance focused, JSON processor lib. When reaching a ‘[‘ or ‘{‘ 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.

Research direction
Start with workers/java/build.gradle, where json-path 2.6.0 and its vulnerable json-smart dependency are declared or resolved. Upgrade json-path to a listed fixed version, then run the Java worker build or dependency checks and confirm both reported CVEs are no longer present.
