🦉 Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling

[bwappsec]

This upgrade includes a major version increase for org.jboss.resteasy:resteasy-jackson2-provider from 4.x to 6.x, which introduces significant breaking changes. The Jackson library upgrades are minor and considered low-risk.

High-Risk: org.jboss.resteasy:resteasy-jackson2-provider (4.7.6.Final → 6.2.0.Final)

The upgrade from RESTEasy 4.x to 6.x involves a major architectural shift to support Jakarta EE. This is a high-risk change that requires mandatory code and dependency modifications.

Key Breaking Changes:

• Jakarta EE Namespace Migration: RESTEasy 6.x implements Jakarta RESTful Web Services 3.1, which uses the jakarta.* package namespace instead of javax.*. All imports for JAX-RS APIs (e.g., javax.ws.rs.*) must be updated to jakarta.ws.rs.*.
• Moved Components: Several modules have been moved to separate projects with new Maven coordinates. If you use these, you must update your dependencies:
  • MicroProfile: Moved to org.jboss.resteasy.microprofile (e.g., microprofile-rest-client).
  • Spring: Moved to org.jboss.resteasy.spring:resteasy-spring.
  • RESTEasy Cache: Moved to org.jboss.resteasy.cache:cache-core.

Recommendation:
This upgrade requires a significant migration effort due to the javax to jakarta namespace change. Code must be refactored to use the new jakarta.* packages. Review your project's dependencies to identify and update any of the moved RESTEasy components.

Low-Risk: Jackson Libraries (2.19.2 → 2.21.1)

The upgrades for jackson-core, jackson-databind, and jackson-datatype-jsr310 are minor version changes. The release notes for version 2.21 indicate it is a small release containing mostly bug fixes and no major breaking changes. This is considered a safe and low-risk upgrade.
