[jira] [Commented] (HADOOP-17602) Upgrade JUnit to 4.13.1

["Steve Loughran (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-17602?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17308116#comment-17308116 ] 

Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-17602:
-----------------------------------------

There's about 40 uses of TemporaryFolder in the project test suites, so yes, we should upgrade.

it's only a security issue if
* test writes sensitive data
* host is multiuser
* tests run with java.io.tmpdir set to the default of /tmp. Doesn't look like our builds change this value.

So: enough risk the update is justified, especially as this is a test JAR update only
