Ismaël Mejía commented on BEAM-11227:
-------------------------------------
Yes this is possible actually this is what we did in the past when moving from
version 1.13.1.
Notice that this process has two steps:
1. Upgrade and release (independently) the vendored dependency.
2. Update the Beam codebase to use the vendored dependency (usually a huge but
relatively straight forward PR).
(1) requires a vote in the mailing list and ideally (2) to have been tested in
advance.
I can help with the vote/release part if you like when we can confirm that the
upgrade works. Also I think the upgrade is worth to catch up with the latest
releases and improvements of gRPC independent of the security issue but that's
a good question. [~bmbodj] How did you get to know about this vulnerability and
its relation with this module?. Seems odd because gRPC seems not to have any
use jetty
