Deeply nested path arrays can cause unbounded recursion in
`jv_setpath`, `jv_getpath`, and `jv_delpaths`, leading to
stack overflow. Add a depth limit of 10000 to match the
existing `tojson` depth limit. This fixes CVE-2026-33947.
The hash function used a fixed seed, allowing attackers to craft colliding keys
and cause O(n^2) object parsing performance. Initialize the seed from a random
source at process startup to prevent the attack. This fixes CVE-2026-40164.

In `jvp_string_append`, the allocation size `(currlen + len) * 2` could
overflow `uint32_t` when `currlen + len` exceeds `INT_MAX`, causing a small
allocation followed by a large `memcpy`.
In `jvp_string_copy_replace_bad`, the output buffer size calculation
`length * 3 + 1` could overflow `uint32_t`, again resulting in a small
allocation followed by a large write.
Add overflow checks to both functions to return an error for strings
that would exceed `INT_MAX` in length. Fixes CVE-2026-32316.
I love jq :) So while updating the version we ship in Solaris I have
tried to modify stuff to make everything work out of the box. Just
```
autoreconf -fiv
./configure
gmake
gmake check
```
I also went ahead and created Solaris test action should you be
interested in having it too. The changes are not extensive and I have
tried to comment them nicely in each commit. Hopefully that's enough.
Thanks for jq!
- Fix segfault when --skip/--take is the last argument.
- Fix FILE handle leak: opened test files were never closed.
- Support running multiple test files in one invocation.
Copy `kk` and `vk` before passing to jv_object_get(), which consumes
its arguments. Without copies, subsequent loop iterations read freed
memory (CWE-416) and post-loop jv_free() double-frees (CWE-415).
This bug was introduced in `b279713e` when array processing was hoisted
out of
the loop into locals without accounting for jv_object_get() semantics.
Fixes GHSA-gf4g-95wj-4q4r.
When a module fails to parse as a library, `load_library` cached the
invalid block. A second import/include of the same module would find
the cached invalid block and pass it to `block_bind_library`,
triggering the assertion failure. Skip caching the block when there
are parse errors to avoid this problem.
This commit improves performance by refactoring `@uri` and `@urid`
to pre-alloacte buffers and build the `jv` string at the end.
Also, this fixes `@urid` to prevent multi-byte UTF-8 corruption,
and to preserve embedded null bytes.
Was detect by AFL build but it's unsure if possible to trigger in non-fuzz build.
Oniguruma has a default limit of 4096 but this is not be low enough to
protect from stack-overflows in some builds like with AFL where it seems
to use more stack space. A limit of 1024 should be enough usage-wise
and also give more margin.
The `jv_string_empty` did not properly null-terminate the string data,
which could lead to a heap buffer overflow. The test case of
GHSA-p7rr-28xf-3m5w (`0[""*0]`) was fixed by the commit dc849e9bb7,
but another case (`0[[]|implode]`) was still vulnerable. This commit
ensures string data is properly null-terminated, and fixes CVE-2025-48060.
* Handle input errors for --indent
Handle malformed and overflowing arguments. Also, forbid leading and
trailing spaces to match the behavior of tonumber from commit ce0e788
(improve tonumber/0 performance by parsing input as number literal,
2024-03-02).
* Do not skip leading whitespace in jvp_strtod
`jvp_strtod` skips leading whitespace, but its decnum counterpart
`decNumberFromString` (called within `jv_number_with_literal`) does not.
Those two are called interchangeably, so it leads to inconsistent
behavior depending on whether the decnum feature is enabled.
Additionally, `classify`, used in the token scanner, only considers
[ \t\n\r] to be whitespace, but `jvp_strtod` consumes the larger set
[ \t\n\v\f\r], so those extra characters are considered literals.
Changing this deviates from the behavior of `strdod` from <stdlib.h> and
is technically a breaking API change, since it is a public symbol.
Previously, the precedence of `as` binding was higher than the binary
operators. This results in unexpected behaviors, `1 + 2 as $x | -$x`
was `-1` instead of `-3`. The commit 92daac90f6 (PR #3053) changed
the behavior to emit syntax error on this case. Now, this commit allows
binary operators with `as` binding. This fixes#2446, and fixes#3284.
This commit fixes signed integer overflow and SEGV issues on growing
arrays and objects. The size of arrays and objects is now limited to
`536870912` (`0x20000000`). This fixes CVE-2024-23337 and fixes#3262.
This commit improves the parser and compiler error messages, making
it more easier to understand where in the filter the problem is.
Like modern compilers, jq will show the line in the filter where the
error occurred, will display squiggly line under the invalid token.
This commit improves the parser to fix some unintuitive results of the unary
operator `-` (e.g. `[-1 as $x | 1,$x]` is now `[1,-1]`, previously `[-1,-1]`).
Also, this commit now allows to use binary operator expressions, `reduce`,
`foreach`, `if`, and `try` expressions for object values.
This commit refactors `splits/2` implementation using `foreach` syntax
and reduces intermediate arrays. This refactoring removes an unnecessary
private (and undocumented) filter `_nwise` and closes#3148.
