Thanks for flagging this, Mick!
No concern from me as all EOL dates for these distributions have long passed

CASSANDRA-16212 is about to be committed to trunk, upgrading JNA from 4.2.2
to 5.6.0.
This will mean that Cassandra 4.0 requires a glibc-2.7 or greater system.
Consequences of this will be the following distributions will no longer be
supported
- Centos 5 (and earlier), (EOL was 2017-03-31),
-
