The current version of Ranger uses Apache Atlas 2.2.0, which transitively
depends on Spring Framework 4.3.29.RELEASE. This specific version of the Spring
Framework is vulnerable to CVE-2023-20863.
*Root Cause:*
The vulnerability exists due to the dependency on Apache Atlas 2.2.0, which
includes the outdated and vulnerable version of the Spring Framework
(4.3.29.RELEASE).
*Resolution Suggestion:*
To address CVE-2023-20863, it is recommended to upgrade Apache Atlas to version
2.4.0, which includes an updated and secure version of the Spring
Framework-5.3.39.
