Norbert Kalmár commented on HBASE-23828:
----------------------------------------

As to why it is a bad thing having guava 11.0.2 on the classpath: 
[CVE-2018-10237|https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2018-10237] "Unbounded 
memory allocation in Google Guava 11.0 through 24.x before 24.1.1 allows remote 
attackers to conduct denial of service attacks against servers that depend on 
this library and [...]"

> Remove unused hadoop.guava.version from pom.xml

> <hadoop.guava.version>11.0.2</hadoop.guava.version> 
> is still used in hbase-backup, I missed it at first...
> So, this should be either updated or removed. 
> Checking which is feasible...
> Update:
> So even if I remove hadoop.guava.version, with hadoop-2 profile, 11.0.2 will 
> be used during the build, and it will be on the classpath. 
> Since hadoop only upgraded to guava 27.0 in hadoop-3, I'm not sure what we 
> can do here. hadoop-2 is incompatible with guava 2x.x versions.
