[jira] [Commented] (HADOOP-16485) Remove dependency on jackson

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-16485?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17051442#comment-17051442 ] 

Wei-Chiu Chuang commented on HADOOP-16485:
------------------------------------------

Sorry [~tamaas] missed this out. With Hadoop 3.3.0 release Feature freeze/ code freeze approaching quickly, I think we should update to 2.10 first. +1

> Looking at git history, there were 5 commits related to updating jackson versions due to various CVEs since 2018. And it seems to get worse more recently.
> File this jira to discuss the possibility of removing jackson dependency once for all. I see that jackson is deeply integrated into Hadoop codebase, so not a trivial task. However, if Hadoop is forced to make a new set of releases because of Jackson vulnerabilities, it may start to look not so costly.
> At the very least, consider stripping jackson-databind coode, since that's where the majority of CVEs come from.
