Issue
This change fixes a missing allocation failure check in
cJSONUtils_FindPointerFromObjectTo.When
cJSON_mallocreturnsNULLwhile building the JSON pointer path, the function may dereference a null pointer before returning. That makes the failure path unsafe in low-memory situations.Changes
NULLchecks after allocatingfull_pointerin the array and object branches ofcJSONUtils_FindPointerFromObjectToNULLfor both branches when allocation failsVerification
