             Summary: Upgrade annotations.jar to a new version
                 Key: IGNITE-9900
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IGNITE-9900
             Project: Ignite
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Stanislav Lukyanov
            Assignee: Stanislav Lukyanov


OWASP Dependency Check reports that annotations.jar of version 13.0 is affected 
by vulnerability CVE-2017-8316,
while it obviously isn't (the CVE is about XXE attack, and annotations.jar is, 
well, annotations).

The issue is that NVD database only says that "intellij_idea" is affected, and 
OWASP doesn't know better than to map annotations.jar to the intellij_idea 
product.

While the problem could be (and perhaps will be, see 
https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-200601) sorted out on the level of 
OWASP and NVD, the easiest way to workaround this is to upgrade annotations.jar 
to a new version (currently 16.0.3). It will help Ignite users to avoid 
annoying false-positive warnings from OWASP.
