commit 427732ef8ee7f707a32734a13a926a2d070b8ba9
Author: Mark Thomas <ma...@apache.org>
AuthorDate: Thu Jan 16 16:37:06 2025 +0000

     Automate protection for CVE-2024-56337
If there is a potentially vulnerable web application (Java < 21,
     WebResourceSet configured for read/write, case-insensitive file system)
     ensure that the JVM behaves as if sun.io.useCanonCaches is false. If
     that cannot be ensured, prevent the potentially vulnerable web
     applications from starting.

I looked at various approaches for this and settled on this one after a few experiements. I wanted to give folks a little time for feedback before porting it to 10.1.x and 11.0.x. I won't port it to main since that requires Java 21 where the problematic JVM setting doesn't exist.

Mark
