Summary

Jackson Core 3.x does not consistently enforce `StreamReadConstraints.maxDocumentLength`. Oversized JSON documents can be accepted without a `StreamConstraintsException` in multiple parser entry points, which allows configured size limits to be bypassed and weakens denial-of-service protections. Affected versions are from 3.0.0 through 3.1.0.
