 - FasterXML jackson-databind before 2.7.9.3, 2.8.x before 2.8.11.1 and 2.9.x before 2.9.5 allows
 unauthenticated remote code execution because of an incomplete fix for the CVE-2017-7525 deserialization

 ObjectMapper, bypassing a blacklist that is ineffective if the c3p0 libraries are available in the
 classpath. (CVE-2018-7489)
