      <body xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
	<p>cJSON versions 1.5.0 through 1.7.19 contain an incorrectly-resolved
	name or reference vulnerability in the decode_pointer_inplace()
	function within cJSON_Utils.c that allows unauthenticated attackers to
	cause JSON Patch operations to target wrong object keys by supplying
	crafted JSON Pointer escape sequences (~0 or ~1) in patch paths.
	Attackers can submit malicious RFC 6902 JSON Patch input to
	applications using cJSONUtils_ApplyPatches() or
	cJSONUtils_ApplyPatchesCaseSensitive() to silently corrupt data or
	delete unintended keys, potentially bypassing authorization controls
	in applications that rely on JSON Patch for access-controlled data
	modification.</p>
