There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - The optional initial password change and password expiration features present in Apache Jackrabbit Oak
 1.2.0 to 1.22.0 are prone to a sensitive information disclosure vulnerability. The code mandates the
 changed password to be passed as an additional attribute to the credentials object but does not remove it
