Judo 1.1.0 Released: Capping the Limits

Posted on 2025-09-26T16:34:00Z

Judo version 1.1.0 has been released and introduces a hard limit of 1 GB on the input JSON size. This limit guarantees there will never be any integer or pointer addressing overflows.

Why the Limit?

While real-world JSON is unlikely to exceed a few megabytes and any sensible web server would drop a suspiciously large request, Judo does not make assumptions about the source of its data. Given its core mission to be the most secure, high-assurance MISRA-C compliant JSON parser, introducing this hard limit significantly strengthens that security guarantee against unforeseen or malicious input. It’s a proactive measure to ensure robustness and compliance even under extreme conditions.
