Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-12767:
-----------------------------------------
Linked to HADOOP-9991
Know that updating JARs inevitably breaks something —especially downstream, so
we are usually pretty reluctant to do it. If it is a security problem, then it
should get more attention, but it's still something we are cautious about.
> update apache httpclient version to the latest 4.5 for security
