Jonathan Turner Eagles commented on HADOOP-17249:
-------------------------------------------------

Usually with libraries such as jackson, API breaking changes are NOT upgraded 
within the same hadoop minor version (say 2.10.0 -> 2.10.1). Instead they are 
upgraded in new hadoop minor version (say 2.11.0). Without shading, this will 
impact customers, and will make it difficult for downstream products to 
maintain compatibility.

Many of the vulnerabilities that have been found with jackson and others aren't 
a problem in hadoop as its usage can't be exploited. In this case I would 
suggest a minor version upgrade that contains the fixes.

As to jackson-databind, this version needs to align with jackson library as 
there are compatibility issues as well.

Lastly, when upgrading to an incompatible library please mark the jira as an 
incompatible change to make sure it gains the proper attention.
