Actual Behavior

Have a article smart_content property with configuration like this:

<property name="news" type="smart_content">
    <meta>
        <title lang="en">Atricles</title>
    </meta>
    <params>
        <param name="provider" value="articles" />
        <param name="max_per_page" value="6" />
        <param name="properties" type="collection">
            <param name="title" value="title"/>
            <param name="excerptTitle" value="excerpt.title"/>
            <param name="url" value="url"/>
            <param name="description" value="description"/>
            <param name="excerptDescription" value="excerpt.description"/>
            <param name="uuid" value="object.resource.uuid"/>
            <param name="authored" value="object.authored"/>
            <param name="image" value="image"/>
            <param name="template" value="object.templateKey"/>
        </param>
        <param name="present_as" type="collection">
            <param name="slider">
                <meta> 
                    <title lang="en">Slider</title>
                </meta>
            </param>
        </param>
    </params>
</property>

When this smart_content is resolved for a twig template the content.description is null even though article has a description filled.

Instead you get this:

"news" => [
    [
      "excerptTitle" => "Test"
      "excerptDescription" => "<p>test</p>"
      "uuid" => "01a06650-f727-7d6e-8528-0c199c037959"
      "authored" => "2026-09-03T08:09:37+00:00"
      "template" => "article"
      "title" => "image-name"
      "url" => "/media/9/download/image-name.jpg?v=1"
      "image" => array:35 [▶]
      "description" => null // incorrect null value
      "lastModified" => null
    ]
  ]

Expected Behavior

All content fields should be filled with correct values.

Example result:

"news" => [
    [
      "excerptTitle" => "Test"
      "excerptDescription" => "<p>test</p>"
      "uuid" => "01a06650-f727-7d6e-8528-0c199c037959"
      "authored" => "2026-09-03T08:09:37+00:00"
      "template" => "article"
      "title" => "image-name"
      "url" => "/media/9/download/image-name.jpg?v=1"
      "image" => array:35 [▶]
      "description" => "<p>Something ...</p>" // correct
      "lastModified" => null
    ]
  ]

Steps to Reproduce

Having the above configuration description will be overwritten by description within image. The error happens in
Sulu\Content\Application\ContentResolver\DataNormalizer\ContentViewDataNormalizer::recursivelyMapProperties()

During recursively mapping properties image is and array and thus stepped in here:

if (\is_array($value) && 'view' !== $key) {

Hovewer because of this line:

public function recursivelyMapProperties(
    ...
    $rootPath = $isRoot ? $rootSegments : ['content', ...$rootSegments];
    // @phpstan-ignore-next-line
    $this->propertyAccessor->setValue($data, $this->buildPropertyPath($rootPath), $value);
    ...

$rootPath is incorrectly set to ['content', 'description'] instead of ['content','image','description'] thus overwriting content.description.

Possible Solutions

When you change the order defined in smart_content properties the issue doesn't affect anything but that's a workaround. Ideally $rootSegments should also contain full path, e.g. content.image? I am not brave enough to suggest a fix to this because it's widely used function in Sulu and I don't know what else does it affect.
