Hi,
A crash caused by stack exhaustion parsing a JSON was found. It affects, at least version 1.5 as well as the last git revision. Technical details and a reproducer are available here:
https://github.com/stedolan/jq/issues/1136
This crash was found by QuickFuzz working with Radamsa (that caused the extreme mutation)
Regards, Gustavo.
