Hi, @jsmariegaard , @ecomodeller , I'd like to report a vulnerability issue in mikecore_0.2.0.

Dependency Graph between Python and Shared Libraries

Issue Description

As shown in the above dependency graph, mikecore_0.2.0 directly or transitively depends on 3 C libraries (.so). However, I noticed that one C library is vulnerable, containing the following CVEs: libxerces-c-3.1.so from C project xerces-c(version:3.1.1) exposed 2 vulnerabilities: CVE-2018-1311, CVE-2015-0252

Suggested Vulnerability Patch Versions

xerces-c has fixed the vulnerabilities in versions >=3.2.3

Python build tools cannot report vulnerable C libraries, which may induce potential security issues to many downstream Python projects. As a popular python package (mikecore has 2,265 downloads per month), could you please upgrade the above shared libraries to their patch versions?

Thanks for your help~ Best regards, Andy

I will report this on, as this is an issue for all the MIKE linux products.
