Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
The github.com/buger/jsonparser package before 1.1.2 is vulnerable to denial of service. The Delete function does not properly validate offsets when handling malformed JSON, which can cause a negative slice index and a runtime panic. Upgrade to version 1.1.2 or later.
