In NATO Communications and Information Agency anet (aka Advisor Network) through 3.3.0, an attacker can provide a crafted JSON file to sanitizeJson and cause an exception. This is related to the U+FFFD Unicode replacement character. A for loop does not consider that a data structure is being modified during loop execution.

Weakness

A NULL pointer dereference occurs when the application dereferences a pointer that it expects to be valid, but is NULL, typically causing a crash or exit.
