Viktor Somogyi-Vass commented on KAFKA-17437: --------------------------------------------- [~gira1] I created a PR for you. Usually these changes are quite straightforward if you want to do it next time :) > Upgrade commons-validator from 1.7 to 1.9.0 > ------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-17437 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-17437 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: connect, core > Affects Versions: 4.0.0 > Reporter: Hans Schuell > Assignee: Viktor Somogyi-Vass > Priority: Minor > > We are using Apache Kafka Connect in a critical environment, where our > application security engineers control the used software (BOMs). The actual > Kafka version (3.8.0) depends on {{commons-validator:commons-validator:1.7}}, > which has vulnerabilities listed > [here|https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/commons-validator/commons-validator/1.7]. > I know, that this CVE doesn't apply to Kafka, because it is related to unit > testing, but it should not be so difficult to upgrade commons-validator from > 1.7 to 1.9.0. I have changed the version in dependencies.gradle to 1.9.0 and > at least the build worked without any problems. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
