    "summary": "jackson-core has Nesting Depth Constraint Bypass in `UTF8DataInputJsonParser` potentially allowing Resource Exhaustion\n### Summary\nThe `UTF8DataInputJsonParser`, which is used when parsing from a `java.io.DataInput` source, bypasses the `maxNestingDepth` constraint (default: 500) defined in `StreamReadConstraints`.\n\nA similar issue was found in `ReaderBasedJsonParser`.\n\nThis allows a user to supply a JSON document with excessive nesting, which can cause a `StackOverflowError` when the structure is processed, leading to a Denial of Service (DoS).\n\nThe related fix for com.fasterxml.jackson.core:jackson-core, CVE-2025-52999, was not fully applied to tools.jackson.core:jackson-core until the 3.1.0 release. It is recommended that 3.0.x users upgrade.\n\n### Patches\njackson-core contains a configurable limit for how deep Jackson will traverse in an input document. This check was missing in a few places in tools.jackson.core:jackson-core. \n\nThe change is in https://github.com/FasterXML/jackson-core/pull/1554. jackson-core will throw a StreamConstraintsException if the limit is reached.\n\njackson-databind also benefits from this change because it uses jackson-core to parse JSON inputs.\n\n### Workarounds\nUsers should avoid parsing input files from untrusted sources.\n\n### Resources\n[GHSA-6v53-7c9g-w56r](https://github.com/FasterXML/jackson-core/security/advisories/GHSA-6v53-7c9g-w56r)\nhttps://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2025-52999\nhttps://github.com/FasterXML/jackson-core/pull/1554",
