Detailed vulnerability description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to modify dynamically determined object attributes.

The vulnerability exists due to improper control of dynamically determined object attributes in jackson-databind record deserialization when applying a PropertyNamingStrategy to `@JsonIgnore`-annotated Record properties. A remote attacker can supply a specially crafted JSON key to modify dynamically determined object attributes.

This issue affects Java Records during deserialization when a naming strategy is used and `@JsonIgnore` is relied on to prevent a component from being set from input.
