According to https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XERCESJ-1735 it is 
now available at 
https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/xerces/xercesImpl/2.12.2/


I've proposed a patch to make the update in Orbit: 
https://git.eclipse.org/r/c/orbit/orbit-recipes/+/190077


The patch has been merged. A Orbit I-build with Xerces 2.12.2 (instead 
of 2.12.1) is available at 
https://download.eclipse.org/tools/orbit/downloads/drops/I20220131095416/repository/.


Note that because of the way Orbit repos are built, this also includes 
the much older Xerces 2.9, which from the CVE is also affected by the 
vulnerability and should be avoided.
