Sean Mackrory commented on HADOOP-15504:
----------------------------------------

Attaching a patch that does the minimum updates required by those 2 CVEs. We 
could also update to the latest of each - I tried that too, and the POM changes 
required (specifically the exclusions) are identical. But there's a risk of 
more unknown changes coming in and possibly requiring an otherwise unnecessary 
update of the Maven version required to build Hadoop.

 

I've run 'mvn site:site', 'mvn install -DskipTests -DskipShade', and 'mvn 
install -DskipShade' and there seem to be no problems. Happy to test more stuff 
if there's something this impacts that I'm missing.

> 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,
