Miggo AIRoot Cause Analysis

The vulnerability stemmed from camel-xmljson's use of JSON-lib for XML processing. While exact patch diffs aren't shown, the component removal and CVE description indicate that XML parsing/generation methods in XmlJsonDataFormat using JSON-lib's XMLSerializer would appear in call stacks when processing untrusted input. The confidence is high for unmarshal() as it directly handles XML parsing, medium for others due to transitive dependency risks.
