Nashorn bug in Java 8 u40: Cannot parse JSON: { 0: null, 100: null }

[Hannes Wallnoefer]

Hi Kaj Magnus,

Thanks for the report. It's unfortunate this bug ended up in 8u40. 
Obviously the fix for the bug you linked was incomplete, and we weren't 
aware of that.

The problem has been fixed in the meantime (together with a rewrite of 
the JSON parser that makes JSON parsing much faster). The fix will be 
part of the 8u60 release. The current 8u60 early access release 
available at https://jdk8.java.net/download.html already contains the fix.

I'm also adding additional tests so this won't happen again:

Regards,
Hannes
