Address OWASP dependency-check CVEs in Jackson and Kotlin#1428
Merged
Conversation
Bump the Jackson 2.x version properties (jacksonVersion, jacksonDatabindVersion, jacksonJaxrsBaseVersion) from 2.21.0 to 2.21.4 and jackson3Version from 3.1.0 to 3.1.4 to pick up the fixes for CVE-2026-54512 through CVE-2026-54518 (PolymorphicTypeValidator bypass and view-authorization issues). The 2.x databind/core are force-pinned via these properties and the 3.x databind flows into the embedded module's strictly constraints, as confirmed with dependencyInsight. Suppress CVE-2026-53914 for the transitive Kotlin jars. That CVE is in the Kotlin compiler's build-cache deserialization; LabKey has no Kotlin source and applies no Kotlin Gradle plugin, so nothing here compiles Kotlin or uses the Kotlin build cache. The kotlin-stdlib/kotlin-reflect jars are only transitive runtime dependencies of OkHttp (via the Duo SDK in mfa, and TCRdb), so the vulnerability is not applicable.

Rationale
The 26.3 OWASP Dependency Check build flagged 18 findings: seven CVEs (CVE-2026-54512 through CVE-2026-54518) against each of Jackson 2.x (com.fasterxml.jackson.core:jackson-databind 2.21.0) and Jackson 3.x (tools.jackson.core:jackson-databind 3.1.0), plus CVE-2026-53914 against the transitive Kotlin jars.
