As noted this release includes a security vulnerability, the user guide
link is
http://docs.geotools.org/latest/userguide/library/metadata/geotools.html#xml
New hints are available for use with DocumentFactory
<http://docs.geotools.org/latest/javadocs/org/geotools/xml/DocumentFactory.html>
and the WebMapServer
<http://docs.geotools.org/latest/javadocs/org/geotools/data/wms/WebMapServer.html#WebMapServer-java.net.URL-org.geotools.data.ows.HTTPClient-java.util.Map->
client.
The key point is the use of a PreventLocalEntityResolver *by default* -
this represents a change in functionality that may affect your application.
If you need to restore "the way things were" use:
*Hints.putSystemDefault(Hints.ENTITY_RESOLVER,
NullEntityResolver.INSTANCE);*
The documentation on Hints
<http://docs.geotools.org/latest/userguide/library/metadata/geotools.html#hints>
has
also been updated with an example of system property bindings for this
setting (-Dorg.xml.sax.EntityResolver=org.geotools.xml.NullEntityResolver)
to be used if you are working in an environment where you do not control
application startup and initialization.
