GHSA-9fxm-vc8v-hj55
Summary jackson-databind's renamed @JsonIgnore'd setters can deserialize via private fields `POJOPropertiesCollector._renameProperties()` allows a property with `@JsonProperty("renamed")` on the getter and `@JsonIgnore` on the setter to be renamed rather than dropped. With `MapperFeature.INFER_PROPERTY_MUTATORS` enabled (default), the private backing field is retained; during deserialization `BeanDeserializerFactory.addBeanProps()` sees `hasField()==true`, builds a `FieldProperty`, and makes the backing field writable. An attacker supplying the renamed JSON key writes the backing field directly, bypassing the `@JsonIgnore` on the setter.
