jackson-databind has case-insensitive deserialization bypasses per-property @JsonIgnoreProperties

  • Disclosed: 23.06.2026
  • Updated: 11.10.2026 13:20

Summary

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.

Impact

An application that both enables case-insensitive matching and relies on per-property @JsonIgnoreProperties to keep a field unwritable can have that field set from untrusted JSON (mass-assignment-style write).

Affected / Patched

Will be fixed in 2.18.9, 2.21.5, 2.22.1 and 3.1.4.

Severity / CWE

Maintainer: minor. Reporter: Moderate. CWE-915.

Upstream fix

FasterXML/jackson-databind#5962 (PR #5964, 0e1b0b2), milestone 3.1.4. Released 2026-06-04.
