release: 6.3.1 — pin plexus-utils to 3.6.1 (CVE-2025-67030) - #281
Merged
Conversation
maven-artifact:3.9.6 (used only for ComparableVersion) transitively pulls plexus-utils:3.5.1, which is affected by CVE-2025-67030 — a directory traversal / Zip Slip in org.codehaus.plexus.util.Expand.extractFile (CVSS 8.8). The vulnerable code is not reachable from this client, but the jar is flagged by SCA scanners. Add a dependencyManagement pin forcing the patched plexus-utils 3.6.1. Staying on the 3.x line avoids the plexus-xml package split introduced in 4.x. dependency:tree confirms plexus-utils now resolves to 3.6.1 and the build/tests are unaffected.

Fix — CVE-2025-67030
api/pom.xmltransitively pullsorg.codehaus.plexus:plexus-utils:3.5.1viaorg.apache.maven:maven-artifact:3.9.6, which is affected by CVE-2025-67030 — a directory-traversal / "Zip Slip" flaw inorg.codehaus.plexus.util.Expand.extractFile()(CWE-22, CVSS 8.8). Fixed in plexus-utils 3.6.1 / 4.0.3.A
dependencyManagementpin forces the patched 3.6.1.Why this is safe (no expected regression)
maven-artifactis used here only forComparableVersion(a single JVM-version check).ComparableVersiondoes not reference plexus-utils at all.maven-artifact:3.9.6, onlyDefaultArtifacttouches plexus (StringUtils.isNotEmpty), and it is never used by this client — so plexus-utils is effectively never loaded at runtime; the vulnerableExpandclass is unreachable.StringUtils.isNotEmptyunchanged), avoiding theplexus-xmlsplit introduced in 4.x.Release bump
