SCA: security update for org.apache.hive:hive, org.apache.hive:hive-exec, org.apache.hive:hive-service (GHSA-gf2v-9hp6-44qg)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 422076

Description

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

 - Apache Hive (JDBC + HiveServer2) implements SSL for plain TCP and HTTP connections (it supports both
 transport modes). While validating the server's certificate during the connection setup, the client in
 Apache Hive before 1.2.2 and 2.0.x before 2.0.1 doesn't seem to be verifying the common name attribute of
 the certificate. In this way, if a JDBC client sends an SSL request to server abc.com, and the server
 responds with a valid certificate (certified by CA) but issued to xyz.com, the client will accept that as
 a valid certificate and the SSL handshake will go through. (CVE-2016-3083)
