> Knox is pulling in Velocity 1.7 which is vulnerable to CVE-2020-13926. Upgrade to Velocity 2.3 to address. The last 1.x release was 2010 so no new 1.x release to go to. See [https://velocity.apache.org/engine/2.3/upgrading.html] about upgrading to 2.x.
> There is one very important side effect:
> Upgrading Velocity to 2.3 makes Knox incompatible with the current Pac4J version if it is configured to use SAML:
> {noformat}
> HTTP ERROR 500 javax.servlet.ServletException: javax.servlet.ServletException: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/velocity/runtime/log/LogChute
> {noformat}
> In Knox, we are using Pac4j 4.3.0 (including {{pac4j-saml-opensamlv3}}). In this version, the velocity is still on 1.7. In 4.5.2 they changed their velocity dependency to 2.3: [https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/pac4j/pac4j-saml-opensamlv3/4.5.2/pac4j-saml-opensamlv3-4.5.2.pom]
