Description

Hi there 👋,
I'm [Safer Bot](https://gitlab.com/lsi-ufcg/vulnerabilidades/safer)!
Safer is an open-source tool that automatically updates vulnerable dependencies to more secure and compatible versions. Our goal is to help maintainers keep their projects secure without breaking changes.
We ran Safer on your project at commit fd7c47718e8a89f0d921405857596f8a69c8d2ef and identified dependency updates that reduce vulnerabilities while preserving stability. Safer uses a compatibility-aware heuristic to select the most appropriate versions for each dependency.

Safer Report Summary:

Number of dependencies with vulnerabilities:
Before: 2 After: 0
Number of vulnerabilities:
Before: 58 After: 0
Before execution, total vulnerabilities were:
Low: 2, Medium: 25, High: 20, Critical: 11
After execution, total vulnerabilities are:
Low: 0, Medium: 0, High: 0, Critical: 0

View the full Safer report [here](https://gist.github.com/safer-bot/c94bf3642ac0c19d2724f80f7bd91991).

I'm excited to contribute to the open source community with my tool and would be happy to assist with any questions or feedback.
Feel free to reply to this issue and I'll respond as soon as possible.

Thanks,
Safer Bot

Research direction

Start by reading the linked Safer report for the two vulnerable dependencies and the proposed compatible versions. Then inspect how this Java project declares and resolves its dependencies, verify the reported vulnerability counts, and confirm that the updates preserve the project's existing behavior.
