Echo: json-smart: security update to 2.2-3net.minidev:json-smart: security update to 2.4.9

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 461373

Description

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

 - [Json-smart](https://netplex.github.io/json-smart/) is a performance focused, JSON processor lib. When
 reaching a ‘[‘ or ‘{‘ character in the JSON input, the code parses an array or an object respectively. It
 was discovered that the code does not have any limit to the nesting of such arrays or objects. Since the
 parsing of nested arrays and objects is done recursively, nesting too many of them can cause a stack
 exhaustion (stack overflow) and crash the software. (CVE-2023-1370)

Solution

Update the json-smart library and its related packages to version 2.2-3 or later.
