The CVE is trivial to fix, and it would help A LOT of users who depend on xalan
today. They will be able to drop-replace xalan.jar with a newer version
and it would resolve the CVE.

I agree migrating to modern alternatives makes sense, however,
the migration requires testing which is hard to do for legacy projects.

I did try building xalan-j, and it worked for me, so I think fixing CVE and
releasing one more xalan version is viable:
