Known Issues

False Positive Spring-Web Vulnerability

GridGain Control Center uses spring-websocket dependency, which, in turn depends on spring-web.

A high-risk CVE-2016-1000027 was discovered in spring-web, and a vulnerability scan would discover it in Control Center. Our code is not affected by this vulnerability, as we do not use affected classes, so this warning is a false positive.

The vulnerability is fixed in spring-6.0, however it requires Java 17 and the update is not possible currently.
