Doc Text:	A flaw was found in jackson-databind, a library used for processing JSON data. This vulnerability allows a remote attacker to force the application to perform an attacker-chosen DNS (Domain Name System) query. This occurs when untrusted JSON input containing specific network address information is processed, potentially leading to the disclosure of sensitive network configuration details.	Story Points:	---

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-06-23 22:01:39 UTC

jackson-databind contains the general-purpose data-binding functionality and tree-model for Jackson Data Processor. From 2.0.0 until 2.18.8, 2.21.4, and 3.1.4, JDKFromStringDeserializer constructed InetSocketAddress with new InetSocketAddress(host, port), which performs eager DNS name resolution for hostname inputs at deserialization time. An application that binds untrusted JSON into a type containing an InetSocketAddress field issues an attacker-chosen DNS query during readValue, before any application-level validation or connect logic. The fix uses InetSocketAddress.createUnresolved(host, port), deferring DNS to an explicit connect. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.18.8, 2.21.4, and 3.1.4.
