How can I prevent Spring MVC from adding additional attributes to my JSON?

I am using Jackson and a ContentNegotiatingViewResolver to return JSON from Spring controllers.

When I define a method in Spring like this

public ModelMap save(FileUploadBean uploadItem, ParameterBean params) throws JsonParseException, JsonMappingException, IOException

and return a ModelMap

ModelMap model = new ModelMap();
model.addAttribute("output","Save was ok");
return model;

Spring allways attaches uploadItem and params to the JSON response despite I have never added these two to ModelMap.

The result looks something like that

{
  "parameterBean": {
    "values": {
      "json": "{\"seizure\":{\"id\":1},\"classDocumentType\":{\"id\":1},\"seizureDocumentI18ns\":[{\"id\":\"\",\"comment\":\"123\",\"matLanguageCode\":\"\"}]}"
    }
  },
  "output": ["Save was ok"],
  "fileUploadBean": {
    "file": {
      "originalFilename": "Form.png",
      "fileItem": {
        "contentType": "image/png"
      }

  }
}

Is this default behaviour, and if where is it described...
