Sean Mackrory commented on HADOOP-15504:
----------------------------------------
[~ajisakaa] I'm only referring to the version of things like maven-core, etc.
we depend on, not the maven version used to run the build. To get past the
security issues involved, we need to update to 3.0.5 or higher. I would assume
that unless there's a bug, that if we don't go above 3.3, it has no impact on
what versions you can use to run the build.

> Key: HADOOP-15504
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-15504
> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Sean Mackrory
> Assignee: Sean Mackrory
> Priority: Major
>
> I'm not even sure that Hadoop's combination of the relevant dependencies is
> vulnerable (even if they are, this is a relatively minor vulnerability), but
> this is at least showing up as an issue in automated vulnerability scans.
> Details can be found here [https://maven.apache.org/security.html]
> (CVE-2013-0253, CVE-2012-6153). Essentially the combination of maven 3.0.4
> (we use 3.0, and I guess that maps to 3.0.4?) and older versions of wagon
> plugin don't use SSL properly (note that we neither use the WebDAV provider
> nor a 2.x version of the SSH plugin, which is why I suspect that the
> vulnerability does not affect Hadoop).
> I know some dependencies can be especially troublesome to upgrade - I suspect
> that Maven's critical role in our build might make this risky - so if anyone
> has ideas for how to more completely test this than a full build, please
> chime in,
