CVE-2026-48516: MessagePack-CSharp: InterfaceLookupFormatter bypasses collision-resistant comparer settings
InterfaceLookupFormatter<TKey,TElement> constructs an internal Dictionary<TKey, IGrouping<TKey,TElement>> with the default equality comparer instead of the security-aware comparer supplied by options.Security.GetEqualityComparer<TKey>().
Other hash-based collection formatters use the security-aware comparer when MessagePackSecurity.UntrustedData is configured. This formatter omission allows hash-collision CPU denial of service against ILookup<TKey,TElement> even when the application has opted into the untrusted-data security posture.
