jakarta.servlet.jsp.jstl v3.0 contains vulnerable shaded JAR for BCEL #258

Open rwmajor2 opened 4 months ago

rwmajor2 commented 4 months ago

Is bcel needed to be included in jakarta.servlet.jsp.jstl.jar? I am curious what it is used for and more importantly what version is it? It is showing up on vulnerability scans due to CVEs with bcel, but I can't find out what version it is from this repo.

Thanks.

Hi, @rwmajor2 this is likely due to a dependency on Xalan 2.7.2.

The implementation of Jakarta Tags has now moved to the Eclipse WaSP project.

The first Eclipse WaSP release containing the Jakarta Tags implementation was 3.2.0: https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/ee4j.wasp.

The 3.2.1 version of Eclipse WaSP has been updated to depend on Xalan 2.7.3: https://github.com/eclipse-ee4j/wasp/commit/b518d50e8cb87ddc3ba7864c91b7048b88aaf7a1.

Feel free to let me know if you have any more questions. Thanks!
