             Summary: Bump Jetty to 9.4.31.v20200723 to get rid of Tomcat CVE 
warnings
                 Key: HIVE-24098
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-24098
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Security

Jetty jar has some fixes for transitive CVEs (apache-jsp see details below).

When using the Apache JServ Protocol (AJP), care must be taken when trusting 
incoming connections to Apache Tomcat. Tomcat treats AJP connections as having 
higher trust than, for example, a similar HTTP connection. If such connections 
are available to an attacker, they can be exploited in ways that may be 
surprising. In Apache Tomcat 9.0.0.M1 to 9.0.0.30, 8.5.0 to 8.5.50, and 7.0.0 
to 7.0.99, Tomcat shipped with an AJP Connector enabled by default that 
listened on all configured IP addresses. It was expected (and recommended in 
the security guide) that this Connector would be disabled if not required. This 
vulnerability report identified a mechanism that allowed: - returning arbitrary 
files from anywhere in the web application - processing any file in the web 
application as a JSP Further, if the web application allowed file upload and 
stored those files within the web application (or the attacker was able to 
control the content of the web application by some other means) then this, 
along with the ability to process a file as a JSP, made remote code execution 
possible. It is important to note that mitigation is only required if an AJP 
port is accessible to untrusted users.

So we need to upgrade jetty 9.4.30+ to get rid of Tomcat CVE warnings
