WS-2017-3805 - High Severity Vulnerability
Vulnerable Library - json-20090211.jar
JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight data-interchange format.
It is easy for humans to read and write. It is easy for machines to parse and generate.
It is based on a subset of the JavaScript Programming Language, Standard ECMA-262 3rd Edition
- December 1999. JSON is a text format that is completely language independent but uses
conventions that are familiar to programmers of the C-family of languages, including C, C++, C#,
Java, JavaScript, Perl, Python, and many others.
These properties make JSON an ideal data-interchange language.
