Summary
rapidjson vulnerability
Details

It was discovered that RapidJSON did not properly protect against integer overflows in certain instances when parsing JSON text. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to craft a malicious JSON file, that when read by RapidJSON, would lead to an elevation of privilege, resulting in the potential disclosure of sensitive information.
