Description
jq is a lightweight and flexible command-line JSON processor. jq is like sed for JSON data. You can use it to slice, filter, map, or transform structured data with the same ease that sed, awk, grep, or similar applications allow you to manipulate text. Security Fix(es): * jq: jq has signed integer overflow in jv.c:jvp_array_write (CVE-2024-23337) * jq: AddressSanitizer: stack-buffer-overflow in jq_fuzz_execute (jv_string_vfmt) (CVE-2025-48060) For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.
