CVE-2026-91776: jackson-databind retains every unknown raw type ID
With @JsonTypeInfo(use = Id.NAME, defaultImpl = ...), every distinct unknown
raw type ID selects the same fallback deserializer but is retained as a
separate key in TypeDeserializerBase._deserializers. An attacker who can
repeatedly supply new unknown type IDs can grow this process-lifetime cache
without a configured bound.
