value too long for type character when uploading Xray on demand binary scan output #14367
Description
Bug description
When I try to upload an Artifactory XRAY on demand binary scan json-ouput to DefectDojo. I got a HTML 500 error. When I look into the engagement, I see that only 50% is processed before failing.
It looks like some strings are to long for the parser.
Steps to reproduce
Upload the JSON into DefectDojo.
Expected behavior
That the json is fully imported and processed by DefectDojo instead of just 50%
Deployment method (select with an X)
- Podman Compose
Environment information
- Operating System: MacOS Tahoe 26.3
- Docker Compose or Helm version: podman version 5.7.1
- DefectDojo version (see footer) or commit message: 2.55.3
