CVE-2026-29975

Beschreibung

lwjson 1.8.1 contains an improper input validation vulnerability in the streaming JSON parser (lwjson_stream.c). The end-of-string detection logic incorrectly identifies escaped quote characters by only checking the immediately preceding character rather than counting consecutive backslashes, causing valid JSON strings ending with an escaped backslash (like -\\-) to never terminate parsing. A remote attacker can send well-formed JSON to cause applications using lwjson_stream_parse() to hang indefinitely, resulting in denial of service.
