The artifact is a 2013 repackage of third-party org.json classes, published once and never maintained, and no fixed version will be released.


Users of the affected version should apply the following mitigation.

Product version
com.vaadin.external.google:android-json 0.0.20131108.vaadin1

Mitigation
No fixed version will be released. Replace the artifact with an org.json implementation that limits the nesting depth, such as org.json:json 20231013 or later.
