Snyk has created this PR to upgrade com.fasterxml.jackson.core:jackson-databind from 2.15.3 to 2.20.1.

ℹ️ Keep your dependencies up-to-date. This makes it easier to fix existing vulnerabilities and to more quickly identify and fix newly disclosed vulnerabilities when they affect your project.


  • The recommended version is 26 versions ahead of your current version.

  • The recommended version was released a month ago.


Merge Risk: Medium

This is a minor version upgrade, but it includes potentially breaking changes across several versions.

  • Jackson 2.17: Introduces stricter handling of numeric strings; for example, strings with leading zeroes like "07" are no longer coerced to numbers.
  • Jackson 2.19: For Kotlin users, the base class for MissingKotlinParameterException was changed to InvalidNullException, which may affect exception handling.
  • Jackson 2.20: Drops Java 6 compatibility, requiring a Java 8 baseline for jackson-annotations. It also upgrades the required Kotlin version to 2.0.

Recommendation: Review deserialization logic, especially for numeric coercion and Kotlin-specific exception handling. Ensure your project uses a compatible Java version.
