SCA: security update for org.apache.cxf:cxf-rt-management (GHSA-ffm7-7r8g-77xm)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 414478

Description

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

 - Apache CXF has the ability to integrate with JMX by registering an InstrumentationManager extension with
 the CXF bus. If the ‘createMBServerConnectorFactory‘ property of the default InstrumentationManagerImpl is
 not disabled, then it is vulnerable to a man-in-the-middle (MITM) style attack. An attacker on the same
 host can connect to the registry and rebind the entry to another server, thus acting as a proxy to the
 original. They are then able to gain access to all of the information that is sent and received over JMX.
 (CVE-2020-1954)
