Jackson 3.0.1 (tools.jackson.core) in Flowable 8.0.0 has several HIGH CVEs, please upgrade to ≥ 3.1.7 #4300

Description

@pmusy

We're using Flowable 8.0.0, the latest release (2026-02-27):

  • org.flowable:flowable-engine:8.0.0
  • org.flowable:flowable-dmn-engine:8.0.0
  • org.flowable:flowable-dmn-engine-configurator:8.0.0

Our vulnerability scanner reports several HIGH vulnerabilities in the Jackson 3 dependencies. org.flowable:flowable-engine-common:8.0.0 pulls in tools.jackson.core:jackson-core and tools.jackson.core:jackson-databind in version 3.0.1.

Workaround

As a workaround, we import tools.jackson:jackson-bom:3.1.7 in our <dependencyManagement>. Our test suite passes with Flowable 8.0.0 on Jackson 3.1.7.

Question

Could you upgrade Jackson to 3.1.7 (or 3.2.3), and is a release with the upgrade planned?
