      "value": "Cpanel::JSON::XS versions before 4.80 for Perl leak the decoded arguments of a tagged value when its THAW method dies in decode_tag.\n\nWith allow_tags, a tagged value's class name and argument array are decoded and passed to the class's THAW method. Both are released only after THAW returns, so a THAW that dies leaves the whole decoded argument structure allocated.\n\nEach rejected document leaks data of a size the sender chooses, so a process that catches the error and keeps running exhausts its memory."
