> Cassandra depends on org.apache.cassandra:cassandra-driver-core:3.12.1 with
> the "shaded" classifier. That artifact bundles a relocated copy of Netty
> 4.1.94.Final (released 2023-06-20) under com.datastax.shaded.netty, across
> eight Netty modules. Twelve published Netty advisories fall inside that
> version, ten of them in netty-handler and netty-codec.
> The bigger problem is that this copy is invisible to dependency scanners. The
> driver's shade configuration uses DontIncludeResourceTransformer to delete
> the Maven descriptors of the bundled libraries, including netty-handler and
> netty-codec. Three descriptors were not listed and therefore survive:
> netty-resolver, netty-transport-classes-epoll and
> netty-transport-native-unix-common. Those three carry no advisory at all, so
> scanners report a clean result while the modules that matter cannot be
> detected. Consumers cannot work around this with a Maven exclusion, since an
> exclusion matches an artifact coordinate and these relocated classes were
> never published as an artifact.
