org.eclipse.parsson/parsson: Eclipse Parsson: Denial of Service via uncontrolled resource consumption in JSON parsing

Published Jul 2, 2026 CVSS 3.1 · 7.5 High EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
In Eclipse Parsson published Maven Central artifacts before version 1.1.8, the JSON parser did not enforce a default maximum on the number of characters consumed while parsing a single JSON document. Applications that parse attacker- controlled JSON can be forced to consume excessive CPU and memory by processing very large documents, including large arrays, objects, strings, numbers, whitespace, or nested structures, resulting in a denial of service. Eclipse Parsson 1.1.8 introduces a configurable maximum parsing limit with a default limit of 15 million parser-consumed characters.
