Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.20%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

It was discovered that the is-my-json-valid JavaScript library used an inefficient regular expression to validate JSON fields defined to have email format. A specially crafted JSON file could cause it to consume an excessive amount of CPU time when validated.
