SCA: security update for io.micronaut:micronaut-json-core (GHSA-43w5-mmxv-cpvh)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 438893

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- Micronaut Framework is a JVM-based full stack Java framework designed for building modular, easily
testable JVM applications. Versions prior to both 4.10.16 and 3.10.5 do not correctly handle descending
array index order during form-urlencoded body binding in
theJsonBeanPropertyBinder::expandArrayToThreshold, which allows remote attackers to cause a DoS (non-
terminating loop, CPU exhaustion, and OutOfMemoryError) via crafted indexed form parameters (e.g.,
authors[1].name followed by authors[0].name). This issue has been fixed in versions 4.10.16 and 3.10.5.
(CVE-2026-33013)

Solution

Update the io.micronaut:micronaut-json-core library and its related packages to version 3.10.5 or later.
