In FasterXML jackson-databind before versions 2.13.4.1 and 2.12.17.1, resource exhaustion can occur because of a lack of a check in primitive value deserializers to avoid deep wrapper array nesting, when the UNWRAP_SINGLE_VALUE_ARRAYS feature is enabled.
Mend Note: For 2.13.4.x, the vulnerability is fixed in 2.13.4.1. A micro-patch was added in 2.13.4.2 to address issues for Gradle users.
