vulnerability as referenced in the USN-5245-1 advisory.
- Apache Maven will follow repositories that are defined in a dependency's Project Object Model (pom) which
may be surprising to some users, resulting in potential risk if a malicious actor takes over that
repository or is able to insert themselves into a position to pretend to be that repository. Maven is
changing the default behavior in 3.8.1+ to no longer follow http (non-SSL) repository references by
default. More details available in the referenced urls. If you are currently using a repository manager to
govern the repositories used by your builds, you are unaffected by the risks present in the legacy
behavior, and are unaffected by this vulnerability and change to default behavior. See this link for more
information about repository management: https://maven.apache.org/repository-management.html
