Summary
rapidjson security update
Details

RapidJSON as a fast JSON parser which generator for c++. Its inspired by RapidXML. Its supports both SAX & DOM style API. Its small but complete. Its fast, Its preformance can be comparabel to strlen(). Its self-contained. It doesnt depend on external libraries such as BOOST. Its Unicode and memory friendly, each JSON valude occupies exactly 16/20 bytes for most 32/64-bit machines. It`s suport UTF-8 UTF-16 UTF-32 (LE & BE).

Security Fix(es):

Tencent RapidJSON is vulnerable to privilege escalation due to an integer underflow in the GenericReader::ParseNumber() function of include/rapidjson/reader.h when parsing JSON text from a stream. An attacker needs to send the victim a crafted file which needs to be opened; this triggers the integer underflow vulnerability (when the file is parsed), leading to elevation of privilege.(CVE-2024-38517)
