Fedora System Alert FEDORA-2024-12a3c7ef8b details Java Environment transition and essential security updates for jdom2.
Change for system JDK from 17 to 21

Summary

JDOM is a Java-oriented object model which models XML documents.

It provides a Java-centric means of generating and manipulating

XML documents. While JDOM inter-operates well with existing

standards such as the Simple API for XML (SAX) and the Document

Object Model (DOM), it is not an abstraction layer or

enhancement to those APIs. Rather, it seeks to provide a robust,

light-weight means of reading and writing XML data without the

complex and memory-consumptive options that current API

offerings provide.
