> This issue is to track an issue already fixed in Axis2 1.8.0; CVE-2012-5785 is not relevant because it discusses very old versions of Apache HTTPClient from around 2012.
> [https://www.cs.utexas.edu/~shmat/shmat_ccs12.pdf]
> From Axis2 1.8.0 on, we removed support for Apache HTTPClient 3.x completely.
> In the 1.7.x release series, removing Apache HTTPClient 3.x and running only 4.x is possible as explained in AXIS2-5959 but anyways users should still upgrade to Axis2 1.8.0.
> For Apache HTTPClient 4.x, the link above from 2012 describes problems fixed many years ago. See CVE-2014-3577. 
> All users of Axis2 are encouraged to always run the latest Apache httpcore and httpclient libs.
> The Axis2 1.8.0 release the past August 2021 included Apache httpclient version 4.5.13 in our pom.xml and there have been no releases of Apache httpclient since.
> Since Axis2 1.8.0, there was a release of Apache httpcore 4.4.15. Users are encouraged to update their pom.xml to the latest version. The pom.xml in the Axis2 master branch is up to date.
