------------------------------------

             Summary: A FOP 2.7.1 hotfix release with only updated batik 
dependencies
                 Key: FOP-3097
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FOP-3097
             Project: FOP
          Issue Type: Wish
    Affects Versions: 2.7
            Reporter: Joshua Marquart


batik 1.14 is a dependency of FOP 2.7.  1.14 has CVE issues considered HIGH and 
MEDIUM.  

CVE-2022-40146 - HIGH

CVE-2022-38648 - MEDIUM

CVE-2022-38398 - MEDIUM

These issues are resolved in batik 1.15. 

The existence of these dependency vulnerabilities cause items such as 
buildbreaker to prevent proper clean builds when referencing FOP 2.7.  The CVE 
associated with batik 1.14 are considered vulnerability issues by security 
teams who run audits and enforce build breaker scenarios, preventing 
deployments of FOP 2.7 due to the vuln existence.

WORKAROUND

The current workaround is for developers to enforce a custom batik dependency 
override to 1.15.  A FOP 2.7.1 hotfix release just to address the batik 
dependency problem would be appreciated by the extended community.  It 
theoretically should not require any FOP code changes.
