CVE-2023-26819
cJSON 1.7.15 might allow a denial of service via a crafted JSON document such as {"a": true, "b": [ null,9999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999912345678901234567]}.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.23%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
