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

- This affects Apache Cayenne 4.1.M1, 3.2.M1, 4.0.M2 to 4.0.M5, 4.0.B1, 4.0.B2, 4.0.RC1, 3.1, 3.1.1, 3.1.2.
CayenneModeler is a desktop GUI tool shipped with Apache Cayenne and intended for editing Cayenne ORM
models stored as XML files. If an attacker tricks a user of CayenneModeler into opening a malicious XML
file, the attacker will be able to instruct the XML parser built into CayenneModeler to transfer files
from a local machine to a remote machine controlled by the attacker. The cause of the issue is XML parser
processing XML External Entity (XXE) declarations included in XML. The vulnerability is addressed in
Cayenne by disabling XXE processing in all operations that require XML parsing. (CVE-2018-11758)
