CodeAnt-AI Description

Upgrade Hibernate to fix SQL injection vulnerability

What Changed

  • Hibernate dependency upgraded from 3.6.10.Final to 5.3.38.Final, addressing a reported SQL injection vulnerability
  • Minor pom.xml formatting adjustments (self-closing XML tags and whitespace) to plugin and formatter sections; no runtime behavior changes expected

Impact

✅ Fewer SQL injection risks
✅ Safer dependency versions during build and deploy
✅ Fewer Snyk vulnerability alerts

Suggestion: The Hibernate version property was upgraded to 5.3.38.Final while the codebase still imports and uses the removed org.hibernate.classic.Session API (see HibernateUtil), so this major version bump will cause missing-type compilation or runtime errors until the code is refactored off the classic API; either keep the previous 3.6.10.Final version or update the Java code in tandem with the upgrade. [type error]

Severity Level: Critical 🚨
- ❌ Project fails to compile in CI (pom property used globally).
- ❌ Build/pipeline blocked preventing deployments.
- ❌ Unit tests cannot run; compile-time failure.
- ⚠️ Runtime code using Hibernate APIs may require refactor.
Suggested change
<version.hibernate>5.3.38.Final</version.hibernate>
<version.hibernate>3.6.10.Final</version.hibernate>
Steps of Reproduction ✅
1. Observe the Hibernate version property in pom.xml at properties block: `pom.xml:1251`
currently contains `<version.hibernate>5.3.38.Final</version.hibernate>` (verified by Read
output).

2. Build the project with mvn compile (or run CI). Maven will pick up Hibernate artifacts
declared at `pom.xml:786-801` where `hibernate-core` and `hibernate-entitymanager` use
`${version.hibernate}` (verified in pom.xml read: lines ~785-801).

3. The codebase contains direct references to the removed "classic" API: file
`src/main/java/org/owasp/benchmark/helpers/HibernateUtil.java` references
`org.hibernate.classic.Session` (grep matches at `HibernateUtil.java:41` and
`HibernateUtil.java:103`).

4. With Hibernate 5.3.38.Final on the classpath, `org.hibernate.classic.Session` no longer
exists; when javac compiles `HibernateUtil.java` it will fail with "symbol not found:
org.hibernate.classic.Session" (reproducible locally by running `mvn -DskipTests=false
compile`).

5. The compilation failure blocks packaging and CI (unit tests and any downstream modules
depending on build artifact), reproducing a concrete build error during normal development
and CI runs (entry points: mvn compile, mvn package; files: `pom.xml`,
`src/main/java/org/owasp/benchmark/helpers/HibernateUtil.java`).

6. Alternative: running any code path that instantiates or calls
`HibernateUtil.getClassicSession()` at runtime is also unsafe if compilation were forced —
but the primary immediate failure is compile-time due to missing type referenced in
`HibernateUtil.java` (grep evidence shows getClassicSession at `HibernateUtil.java:103`).

7. Therefore either keep the older Hibernate version (3.6.10.Final) compatible with
`org.hibernate.classic.Session`, or refactor `HibernateUtil` and all callers to use the
modern Hibernate Session API before upgrading the property in `pom.xml`. The proof is
based on concrete grep/read outputs showing the property and the classic API usage.
