Root Cause Analysis
The patch evidence suggests that the JSONObjectUtils.parse
function was modified to catch unexpected exceptions and rethrow them as ParseException
. This indicates that the function was previously vulnerable to uncaught exceptions, which could lead to an application crash or authentication bypass.
