CVE-2026-59888: jackson-databind: @JsonIgnore on a Record property is bypassed with a PropertyNamingStrategy
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 26/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.42% (FIRST EPSS).
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- According to CISA the attack is automatable: targets can be found by mass scanning.
- Fixed version: com.fasterxml.jackson.core:jackson-databind (Maven) 2.18.8, 2.21.4; tools.jackson.core:jackson-databind (Maven) 3.1.4; jackson-annotations (openSUSE:Leap 16.0) 2.18.9-160000.1.1.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to com.fasterxml.jackson.core:jackson-databind (Maven) 2.18.8, 2.21.4; tools.jackson.core:jackson-databind (Maven) 3.1.4; jackson-annotations (openSUSE:Leap 16.0) 2.18.9-160000.1.1 or later.
Generated automatically from the record's data: CVSS (NVD and CNA), CISA KEV and SSVC, FIRST EPSS, exploit sources, fixed versions. How we calculate it
Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
jackson-databind contains the general-purpose data-binding functionality and tree-model for Jackson Data Processor. From 2.15.0 until 2.18.8, 2.21.4, and 3.1.4, Java Records using a PropertyNamingStrategy can bypass @JsonIgnore because POJOPropertiesCollector._removeUnwantedIgnorals() records an ignored component under its original implicit name before _renameUsing() applies the naming strategy, allowing the renamed JSON key to be assigned to the Record constructor parameter. This issue is fixed in versions 2.18.8, 2.21.4, and 3.1.4.
