SCA: security update for org.apache.geode:geode-core (GHSA-q4q3-r45f-7gwg)

critical Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 417871

Description

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

 - Apache Geode versions up to 1.12.5, 1.13.4 and 1.14.0 are vulnerable to a deserialization of untrusted
 data flaw when using JMX over RMI on Java 8. Any user still on Java 8 who wishes to protect against
 deserialization attacks involving JMX or RMI should upgrade to Apache Geode 1.15 and Java 11. If upgrading
 to Java 11 is not possible, then upgrade to Apache Geode 1.15 and specify "--
 J=-Dgeode.enableGlobalSerialFilter=true" when starting any Locators or Servers. Follow the documentation
 for details on specifying any user classes that may be serialized/deserialized with the "serializable-
 object-filter" configuration option. Using a global serial filter will impact performance.
