allow an unauthenticated user to perform code execution by sending the
maliciously crafted input to the readValue method of the ObjectMapper.
(CVE-2017-7525)

* A vulnerability was found in Jasypt that would allow an attacker to
perform a timing attack on password hash comparison. (CVE-2014-9970)

attacker to retrieve the files on the vulnerable server's filesystem by
uploading specially crafted SVG images. The vulnerability could also allow
a denial of service condition by performing an amplification attack.
