Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

The jackson-mapper-asl package, versions up to and including 1.9.13, is affected by an XML external entity vulnerability in classes different from those of a related earlier flaw. An attacker who can supply XML input to the affected library may be able to read data or cause other effects through external entity references. No fixed version is listed, so the source gives no upgrade path, and it does not describe a workaround. The source gives few details.
