Brandon Williams commented on CASSANDRA-18150:
----------------------------------------------

I decided not to mess with the one in stress because it initializes the 
Constructor with a class, which SafeConstructor doesn't support, and at that 
point it seemed like too much effort for...stress.  Few people even use the 
yaml functionality there.

That said, I see I did miss another one in JMXTool that needs to be addressed, 
I'll post an updated patch.

> Prefer snakeyaml's SafeConstructor over Constructor

> CVE-2022-1471 allows RCE through the Constructor class.  While this isn't a 
> concern since yaml is only used for configuration, it is simple enough to 
> switch to SafeConstructor and harden the server a little more.
