28.2-jre
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMQ-8410?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
Christopher L. Shannon resolved AMQ-8410.
-----------------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
I updated Guava to 31.0.1 as we should keep it updated but as a side note there is no actual security issue here as the method that has the vulnerability is not used anywhere by ActiveMQ.

> Based on our Security scans it has detected CVE-2020-8908 on guava
> {code:java}
> A temp directory creation vulnerability exists in all versions of Guava, allowing an attacker with access to the machine to potentially access data in a temporary directory created by the Guava API com.google.common.io.Files.createTempDir(). By default, on unix-like systems, the created directory is world-readable (readable by an attacker with access to the system). The method in question has been marked @Deprecated in versions 30.0 and later and should not be used. For Android developers, we recommend choosing a temporary directory API provided by Android, such as context.getCacheDir(). For other Java developers, we recommend migrating to the Java 7 API java.nio.file.Files.createTempDirectory() which explicitly configures permissions of 700, or configuring the Java runtime\'s java.io.tmpdir system property to point to a location whose permissions are appropriately configured.
> fixed in 30.0{code}
