Fixes three Jackson vulnerabilities, all patched in the 2.18.8 release:
jackson-core, CVSS 8.7) —maxNumberLengthbypass when JSON is streamed in small chunks: up to ~20 MB of digits could accumulate before validation (memory-exhaustion DoS).jackson-databind, CVSS 8.1) —PolymorphicTypeValidatorbypass via generic type parameters: an allowed container type can wrap a denied nested type argument (RCE-capable PoC published).jackson-databind, CVSS 8.1) — PTV bypass viaallowIfSubTypeIsArray(): the array wrapper is allowed without validating the component type.OpenDJ does not pin a Jackson version itself — the vulnerable 2.18.6 came from the imported
org.openidentityplatform.commons:parent:3.1.2BOM. This change adds ajackson.versionproperty (2.18.9, the latest 2.18.x patch) and importscom.fasterxml.jackson:jackson-bomahead of the commons parent BOM, so the fixed version wins (Maven honors the first BOM that manages an artifact).Verification:
mvn dependency:treeacross the whole reactor: every Jackson artifact (jackson-core,jackson-databind,jackson-annotations, transitivejackson-module-jsonSchema) now resolves to 2.18.9.opendj-core(8182 tests),opendj-rest2ldap(531 tests), zero failures.
