Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-17860:
-----------------------------------------

[~toopt4] please review HADOOP-18487 and the PR to update our shaded protobuf 
library https://github.com/apache/hadoop/pull/4418

we are an open source project which depends on contributions from the 
community. if we can get those two PRs in then the 3.3.5 release will be free 
of these issues. if we don't get the reviews and approval, then they will still 
be in there. 

*we need more than regular notifications of CVEs in dependencies in order to 
make those CVEs to go away*
