This pull request aims to significantly improve the project's security by upgrading multiple vulnerable dependencies and a Maven plugin. The changes, automatically applied by the Safer bot, ensure that the project's pom.xml reflects the latest secure versions, effectively reducing the number of known vulnerabilities from 25 to zero.

- Security Updates: This pull request, automatically generated by the Safer bot, updates several key dependencies and a Maven plugin in the
pom.xmlfile to address and eliminate 25 identified vulnerabilities. - Dependency Version Bumps: Specific dependencies updated include
org.hamcrest:hamcrestto2.2,org.assertj:assertj-coreto3.26.0,org.mockito:mockito-coreto5.12.0,org.glassfish:jakarta.facesto3.0.2,org.glassfish.web:jakarta.servlet.jsp.jstlto2.0.0,org.glassfish:jakarta.elto4.0.2,org.hibernate.validator:hibernate-validatorto8.0.1.Final, andorg.jboss.weld.servlet:weld-servlet-coreto5.1.6.Final. - Plugin Version Update: The

Code Review
This pull request updates several dependencies to more secure versions. The changes introduce maintainability issues by replacing version properties with hardcoded values. In some cases, the corresponding version properties in the <properties> section were not updated, leading to inconsistencies in the build configuration. Consistently use Maven properties for version management.
| <groupId>org.jboss.weld.servlet</groupId> | ||
| <artifactId>weld-servlet-core</artifactId> | ||
| <version>${weld.version}</version> | ||
| <version>5.1.6.Final</version> |
There was a problem hiding this comment.
The version for weld-servlet-core is hardcoded, and the corresponding property weld.version has not been updated from 4.0.3.Final. This creates an inconsistency, as other Weld artifacts like weld-core-impl (line 502) still use the old version via the property. This can lead to classpath issues.
Please update the weld.version property to 5.1.6.Final in the <properties> section and use the property here.
<version>${weld.version}</version>
| <groupId>org.codehaus.cargo</groupId> | ||
| <artifactId>cargo-maven3-plugin</artifactId> | ||
| <version>${cargo-maven3-plugin.version}</version> | ||
| <version>3.26.0</version> |

The version for cargo-maven3-plugin is hardcoded, while the property cargo-maven3-plugin.version remains at the old version 1.10.12. This should be corrected to avoid potential build inconsistencies.
Please update the cargo-maven3-plugin.version property to 3.26.0 and reference it here.
<version>${cargo-maven3-plugin.version}</version>
| <groupId>org.hamcrest</groupId> | ||
| <artifactId>hamcrest</artifactId> | ||
| <version>${hamcrest.version}</version> | ||
| <version>2.2</version> |

The version for hamcrest is hardcoded. It's better to use the existing Maven property ${hamcrest.version} for better maintainability and to centralize version management.
<version>${hamcrest.version}</version>
| <groupId>org.assertj</groupId> | ||
| <artifactId>assertj-core</artifactId> | ||
| <version>${assertj.version}</version> | ||

To maintain consistency and ease of updates, please use the existing Maven property ${mockito.version} for this dependency's version instead of a hardcoded value.
<version>${mockito.version}</version>

The version for jakarta.servlet.jsp.jstl is hardcoded within the jetty-embed profile. Please use the ${jakarta.servlet.jsp.jstl.version} property for consistency and better maintainability.

The version for jakarta.servlet.jsp.jstl is hardcoded within the jetty-external profile. It is better to use the ${jakarta.servlet.jsp.jstl.version} property to ensure all modules use a consistent version.
