That sounds... familiar. Are you perchance the maintainer of SnakeYAML?

Yes, it is correct to file a CVE of the highest priority against your project, because "only intended for processing data from trusted sources" is a frankly ridiculous policy for a serialization/deserialization library.

If it's your toy project that you never expected anyone to use anyway, you don't care about CVEs. If you want to be taken seriously, you cannot play pass-the-blame and ignore the fact that your policy turns the entire project into a security footgun.
