Improperly Controlled Modification of Dynamically-Determined Object Attributes
CVE-2026-54515
Summary
jackson-databind contains the general-purpose data-binding functionality and tree-model for Jackson Data Processor. From 2.8.0 prior to 2.18.9, 2.19.0 prior to 2.21.5, and 3.1.0 prior to 3.1.4, in `BeanDeserializerBase.createContextual()`, per-property `@JsonIgnoreProperties` exclusions are applied by `_handleByNameInclusion()`, producing a contextual deserializer whose `BeanPropertyMap` has the ignored properties removed. The subsequent per-property case-insensitivity block (triggered by @JsonFormat(ACCEPT_CASE_INSENSITIVE_PROPERTIES)) rebuilds from `this._beanProperties` (the original, unfiltered map) instead of `contextual._beanProperties`, then overwrites the filtered map restoring every property `_handleByNameInclusion` had just removed. The ignored property becomes writable again. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.18.9, 2.21.5, and 3.1.4.
