Hi everyone,

Apache Batik 1.16 has been released and contains a security fix [1].

As with the Batik 1.15 release, there is no plan for a poi-ooxml release just 
to upgrade the dependency. Batik is an optional dependency.

POI users can simply update their own builds to use the newer Batik jars. This 
should be a smooth upgrade.

Regards,
PJ

Hi everyone,

Apache Batik [1] is used by Apache POI to work with SVG pictures that can be 
embedded in Microsoft documents. It is an optional dependency of poi-ooxml and 
it appears that we only support it in the XSLF packages for pptx files.

Batik 1.15 has just been released and contains a number of security fixes. [2] 
[3] [4]

We recommend that all users who use the Batik support in poi-ooxml upgrade to 
Batik 1.15. We do not expect that anyone upgrading from batik 1.14 to 1.15 will 
see any issues.
There is no plan to do a special POI release because this an optional 
dependency.
