Release notes for ESAPI 2.5.2.0
Release date: 2023-04-12
Project leaders:
-Kevin W. Wall <[email protected]>
-Matt Seil <[email protected]>
Previous release: ESAPI 2.5.1.0, 2022-11-27
Executive Summary: Important Things to Note for this Release
------------------------------------------------------------
This is a patch release with the primary intent of updating some dependencies, one with a known DoS vulnerability and a more recent one with a potential RCE. From a vulnerability perspective, it addresses CVE-2023-24998 by upgrading to version 1.5 of Apache Commons File Uploads and adding the necessary call to FileBaseUpload.setFileCountMax(). It also updates to version 1.7.3 of AntiSamy to address CVE-2023-26119, a vulnerability in one of their dependencies.
If you are not updating from the previous ESAPI release (2.5.1.0), you should go back and FIRST read all the subsequent release notes in turn. For instance, if you are currently on release 2.3.0.0 and upgrading to this release (2.5.2.0), you should MINIMALLY
read the sections "Changes Requiring Special Attention" in each of the subsequent release notes. So, going from release 2.3.0.0 to 2.5.2.0, you should in turn, read:
esapi4java-core-2.4.0.0-release-notes.txt
esapi4java-core-2.5.0.0-release-notes.txt
esapi4java-core-2.5.1.0-release-notes.txt
esapi4java-core-2.5.2.0-release-notes.txt
in that order. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!
If your SCA tool is reporting any CVE from a direct or transitive dependency in ESAPI, before reporting it as an GitHub issue, please make sure that you review the vulnerability analysis written up in https://github.com/ESAPI/esapi-java-legacy/blob/develop/Vulnerability-Summary.md. Please email us or contact us in our GitHub Discussions page if you have questions about this. See also the SECURITY.md file to report any security issues with ESAPI.

Changes Requiring Special Attention
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Important JDK Support Announcement
* ESAPI 2.3.0.0 was the last Java release to support Java 7. ESAPI 2.4.0 requires using Java 8 or later. See the ESAPI 2.4.0.0 release notes (https://github.com/ESAPI/esapi-java-legacy/blob/develop/documentation/esapi4java-core-2.4.0.0-release-notes.txt) for details as to the reason.
- This means if your project requires Java 7, you must use ESAPI 2.3.0.0 or earlier.
* We are aware that ESAPI does not support Spring Boot 3.x or later or Spring Framework 6.x or later.
- This is because these projects use a version of Jakarta Servlet API that is incompatible with the the Java EE Servlet API. (The package names are different!)
- See Discussion #768 for more details. Please do NOT report this as an issue.
Important ESAPI Logging Changes
* Since ESAPI 2.5.0.0, support for logging directly via Log4J 1 has been removed. (This was two years after it haveing first been deprecated.) Thus, you only choice of ESAPI logging are
- java.util.logging (JUL), which as been the default since ESAPI 2.2.1.0.
* Set ESAPI.Logger=org.owasp.esapi.logging.java.JavaLogFactory in your ESAPI.properties file.
- SLF4J (which your choice of supported SLF4J logging implemmentation)
* Set ESAPI.Logger=org.owasp.esapi.logging.slf4j.Slf4JLogFactory in your ESAPI.properties file.
* Logger configuration notes - If you are migrating from prior to ESAPI 2.2.1.1, you will need to update your ESAPI.properties file as logging-related configuration as per the ESAPI 2.2.1.1 release notes, which may be found at:
https://github.com/ESAPI/esapi-java-legacy/blob/develop/documentation/esapi4java-core-2.2.1.1-release-notes.txt#L39-L78
If you use ESAPI 2.5.0.0 or later, you will get an ClassNotFoundException as the root cause if you still have your ESAPI.Logger property set to use Log4J because the org.owasp.esapi.logger.log4j.Log4JFactory class has been completely removed from the ESAPI jar. If you are dead set on continuing to use Log4J 1, you ought to be able to do so via SLF4J. The set up for Log4J 1 (which has not be tested), should be similar to configure ESAPI to use SLF4J with Log4J 2 as described here:
https://github.com/ESAPI/esapi-java-legacy/wiki/Using-ESAPI-with-SLF4J#slf4j-using-log4j-2x

CHANGELOG: Create your own. May I suggest:
git log --stat --since=2022-11-27 --reverse --pretty=medium
which will show all the commits since just after the previous (2.5.1.0) release.
Alternately, you can download the most recent ESAPI source and run
mvn site
which will create a CHANGELOG file named 'target/site/changelog.html'
