🦉 Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling

[bwappsec]

This upgrade for the Jackson libraries from version 2.19.2 to 2.21.1 is a minor version update with a key environmental change.

Key Changes:

• Java 8 Baseline: Starting with version 2.20, Jackson no longer supports Java 6. Java 8 is now the minimum required version.
• No Breaking API Changes: The release notes for version 2.21 explicitly state there are no behavioral changes. The updates primarily consist of bug fixes, performance improvements, and new features.
• jackson-datatype-jsr310: This module includes a bug fix for deserializing negative timestamps with InstantDeserializer and allows for custom DateTimeFormatter for OffsetDateTime.

Risk Assessment:
The risk is assessed as medium because the drop in Java 6 support constitutes a change in the required runtime environment. While most modern applications are already on Java 8 or higher, this change requires verification.

Recommendation:
Verify that your project is running on Java 8 or a more recent version before upgrading.
