Snyk has created this PR to fix 8 vulnerabilities in the maven dependencies of this project.

Snyk changed the following file(s):

  • samples/client/petstore/java/resteasy/pom.xml

Merge Risk: High

This is a major version upgrade from 3.x to 6.x which includes significant breaking changes, most notably the migration from Java EE to Jakarta EE.

Highlights:

  • Jakarta Namespace: RESTEasy 6.x implements Jakarta RESTful Web Services 3.1, which requires changing all package imports from javax.ws.rs.* to jakarta.ws.rs.*. [3, 7]
  • Module Reorganization: Many modules, including support for Spring and MicroProfile, have been moved to separate projects. You will need to add new dependencies with different Maven coordinates (groupId:artifactId) to continue using them. [2, 3]
  • Removed APIs: Deprecated classes and providers from older versions, such as the Jettison and Jackson 1 providers, have been removed. [4, 5]

Source: RESTEasy Documentation
Recommendation: This upgrade requires a significant migration effort. Developers must refactor code to use the new jakarta.* packages and update build dependencies for any moved modules.
