            Bug ID: 62582
           Summary: Please add OWASP Dependency Check to the build for all
                    Tomcat componets
           Product: Tomcat 9
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: Catalina
          Assignee: dev@tomcat.apache.org
          Reporter: alb...@protonmail.com
  Target Milestone: -----

Please add OWASP Dependency Check to the build (pom.xml).  OWASP DC makes an
outbound REST call to MITRE Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures (CVE) to perform
a lookup for each dependant .jar to list any/all known vulnerabilities for each
jar.  This step is needed because a manual MITRE CVE lookup/check on the main
component does not include checking for vulnerabilities in components or in
dependant libraries.

OWASP Dependency check : https://www.owasp.org/index.php/OWASP_Dependency_Check
has plug-ins for most Java build/make types (ant, maven, ivy, gradle).   

Also, add the appropriate command to the nightly build to generate a report of
all known vulnerabilities in any/all third party libraries/dependencies that
get pulled in. example : mvn -Powasp -Dtest=false -DfailIfNoTests=false clean
aggregate

Generating this report nightly/weekly will help inform the project's
development team if any dependant libraries have a reported known
vulnerailities.  Project teams that keep up with removing vulnerabilities on a
weekly basis will help protect businesses that rely on these open source
componets.
