> There is an old vulnerability in Yarn version 2.7.3 and below (please see 
> [CVE-2016-6811|https://www.cvedetails.com/cve/CVE-2016-6811]) that was 
> recently marked as severity 9 and now it breaks Apex build.  Based on my 
> analysis, the vulnerability affects Yarn cluster itself (see 
> [YARN-5121|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-5121]).
