[jira] [Commented] (WSS-683) WSS4J depends on Velocity 1.7 which contains a security vulnerability (CVE-2020-13936)

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WSS-683?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17304310#comment-17304310 ] 

Daniel Kulp commented on WSS-683:
---------------------------------

OpenSaml 4.x requires java 11 and we still need to support Java8.   Thus, we are restricted to OpenSaml 3.x.

> WSS4J has a transitive dependency on velocity 1.7 (via OpenSAML 3.x) which is subject to a high security vulnerability ( [https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2020-13936] )
> WSS4J should update its OpenSAML dependency to 4.x thereby allowing velocity-core-engine to be updated to the patched version (2.3)
