An update that solves one vulnerability and has one security fix can now be
installed.

## Description:

This update for Java fixes thefollowing issues:

apiguardian was updated to vesion 1.1.2:

  * Added LICENSE/NOTICE to the generated jar
  * Allow @API to be declared at the package level
  * Explain usage of Status.DEPRECATED
  * Include OSGi metadata in manifest

assertj-core was implemented at version 3.25.3:

  * New package implementation needed by Junit5

byte-buddy was updated to version v1.14.16:

  * `byte-buddy` is required by `assertj-core`
  * Changes in version v1.14.16:

  * Update ASM and introduce support for Java 23.

  * Changes in version v1.14.15:

  * Allow attaching from root on J9.

  * Changes of v1.14.14:

  * Adjust type validation to accept additional names that are legal in the
    class file format.

  * Fix dynamic attach on Windows when a service user is active.
  * Avoid failure when using Android's strict mode.

dom4j was updated to version 2.1.4:

  * Improvements and potentially breaking changes:

  * Added new factory method org.dom4j.io.SAXReader.createDefault(). It has more
    secure defaults than new SAXReader(), which uses system
    XMLReaderFactory.createXMLReader() or
    SAXParserFactory.newInstance().newSAXParser().

  * If you use some optional dependency of dom4j (for example Jaxen, xsdlib
    etc.), you need to specify an explicit dependency on it in your project.
    They are no longer marked as a mandatory transitive dependency by dom4j.
  * Following SAX parser features are disabled by default in
    DocumentHelper.parse() for security reasons (they were enabled in previous
    versions):

    * http://xml.org/sax/properties/external-general-entities
    * http://xml.org/sax/properties/external-parameter-entities
  * Other changes:

  * Do not depend on jtidy, since it is not used during build

  * Fixed license to Plexus
  * JPMS: Add the Automatic-Module-Name attribute to the manifest.
  * Make a separate flavour for a minimal `dom4j-bootstrap` package used to
    build `jaxen` and full `dom4j`
  * Updated pull-parser version
  * Reuse the writeAttribute method in writeAttributes
  * Support build on OS with non-UTF8 as default charset
  * Gradle: add an automatic module name
  * Use Correct License Name "Plexus"
  * Possible vulnerability of DocumentHelper.parseText() to XML injection
  * CVS directories left in the source tree
  * XMLWriter does not escape supplementary unicode characters correctly
  * writer.writeOpen(x) doesn't write namespaces
  * Fixed concurrency problem with QNameCache
  * All dependencies are optional
  * SAXReader: hardcoded namespace features
  * Validate QNames
  * StringIndexOutOfBoundsException in XMLWriter.writeElementContent()
  * TreeNode has grown some generics
  * QName serialization fix
  * DocumentException initialize with nested exception
  * Accidentally occurring error in a multi-threaded test
  * Added compatibility with W3C DOM Level 3
  * Use Java generics

hamcrest:

  * `hamcrest-core` has been replaced by `hamcrest` (no source changes)

junit had the following change:

  * Require hamcrest >= 2.2

junit5 was updated to version 5.10.2:

  * Conditional execution based on OS architectures
  * Configurable cleanup mode for @TempDir
  * Configurable thread mode for @Timeout
  * Custom class loader support for class/method selectors, @MethodSource,
    @EnabledIf, and @DisabledIf
  * Dry-run mode for test execution
  * Failure threshold for @RepeatedTest
  * Fixed build with the latest open-test-reporting milestone
  * Fixed dependencies in module-info.java files
  * Fixed unreported exception error that is fatal with JDK 21
  * Improved configurability of parallel execution
  * New @SelectMethod support in test @Suite classes.
  * New ConsoleLauncher subcommand for test discovery without execution
  * New convenience base classes for implementing ArgumentsProvider and
    ArgumentConverter
  * New IterationSelector
  * New LauncherInterceptor SPI
  * New NamespacedHierarchicalStore for use in third-party test engines
  * New TempDirFactory SPI for customizing how temporary directories are created
  * New testfeed details mode for ConsoleLauncher
  * New TestInstancePreConstructCallback extension API
  * Numerous bug fixes and minor improvements
  * Parameter injection for @MethodSource methods
  * Promotion of various experimental APIs to stable
  * Reusable parameter resolution for custom extension methods via
    ExecutableInvoker
  * Stacktrace pruning to hide internal JUnit calls
  * The binaries are compatible with java 1.8
  * Various improvements to ConsoleLauncher
  * XML reports in new Open Test Reporting format

jdom:

  * Security issues fixed:

  * CVE-2021-33813: Fixed an XXE issue in SAXBuilder in JDOM through 2.0.6
    allows attackers to cause a denial of service via a crafted HTTP request
    (bsc#1187446)

  * Other changes and bugs fixed:

  * Fixed wrong entries in changelog (bsc#1224410)

  * The packages `jaxen`, `saxpath` and `xom` are now separate standalone
    packages instead of being part of `jdom`

jaxen was implemented at version 2.0.0:

  * New standalone RPM package implementation, originally part of `jdom` source
    package
  * Classpaths are much smaller and less complex, and will suppress a lot of
    noise from static analysis tools.
  * The Jaxen core code is also a little smaller and has fixed a few minor bugs
    in XPath evaluation
  * Despite the major version bump, this should be a drop in replacement for
    almost every project. The two major possible incompatibilities are:

  * The minimum supported Java version is now 1.5, up from 1.4 in 1.2.0 and 1.3
    in 1.1.6.

  * dom4j, XOM, and JDOM are now optional dependencies so if a project was
    depending on them to be loaded transitively it will need to add explicit
    dependencies to build.

jopt-simple:

  * Included jopt-simple to Package Hub 15 SP5 (no source changes)

objectweb-asm was updated to version 9.7:

  * New Opcodes.V23 constant for Java 23
  * Bugs fixed
  * Fixed unit test regression in dex2jar.
  * Fixed 'ClassNode#outerClass' with incorrect JavaDocs.
  * asm-bom packaging should be 'pom'.
  * The Textifier prints a supplementary space at the end of each method that
    throws at least one exception.

open-test-reporting:

  * Included `open-test-reporting-events` and `open-test-reporting-schema` to
    the channels as they are runtime dependencies of Junit5 (no source changes)

saxpath was implemented at version 1.0 FCS:

  * New standalone RPM package implementation, originally part of `jdom` source
    package (openSUSE Leap 15.5 package only)

xom was implemented at version 1.3.9:

  * New standalone RPM package implementation, originally part of `jdom` source
    package
  * The Nodes and Elements classes are iterable so you can use the enhanced for
    loop syntax on instances of these classes.
  * The copy() method is now covariant.
  * Adds Automatic-Moduole-Name to jar
  * Remove direct dependency on xml-apis:xml-apis artifact since these classes
    are now available in the core runtime.
  * Eliminate usage of com.sun classes to make XOM compatible with JDK 16.
  * Replace remaining usages of StringBuffer with StringBuilder to slightly
    improve performance.
