Highlights

KsonDeserializer.java: most-fixed (1 issue). Treat as high-risk during review.
2 high-severity fixes in this history; regressions here are high-impact.
Recurring patterns
The bug types that recur here, drawn from past fixes, not open vulnerabilities.
Insecure Deserialization: Arbitrary class deserialization via Class.forName can lead to remote code execution; the fix added a ClassSecurityVerifier but only covers this registry path.
Deserialization of Untrusted Data: Unrestricted Class.forName(type) in Kson deserialization allows arbitrary class instantiation; the fix restricts to known/mapped types but only on this path.
