[~pj.fanning], this is a blanket scan identifying jars with known CVEs.  There 
has been no analysis done whatsoever about whether the specific CVE attack is 
even a possibility in the ManifoldCF environment.  That's a lot of work but I 
will wager after all of that the major problem is that the tool doesn't 
understand the actual usage of ManifoldCF and is thus incapable of giving good 
advice.

[~himanshu-v] any chance that you could raise separate issues for the jars you 
are most concerned about and submit PRs with the fixes?

Sorry, most of these cannot be upgraded because there is nothing to upgrade to. 
 Example: Axis jars.

A quick look shows that the kinds of attacks listed here are operating modes 
for the jars in question that would make the attack vector impossible to 
exploit in ManifoldCF.  ManifoldCF indexes data from/to trusted systems, so an 
attack on ManifoldCF itself from such a setup would have to involve a 
man-in-the-middle, which can trivially be avoided if you are on either a secure 
network or use Https for your connections to your repositories.  ManifoldCF's 
UI and API we recommend also be localized to an internal network, but in any 
case they are what we secure.  Database connection security is left as an 
exercise for the user; it's beyond the scope of the ManifoldCF project.
