[GeoNetwork-devel] CFV / End of life for GeoNetwork 3

Hi

At the last PSC meeting on September 28 2023, we discussed proposing a vote for the end the life of GeoNetwork 3 at the end of March 2024.

The last stable version for GeoNetwork 3, GeoNetwork 3.12, has been maintained since 2021. Users are encouraged to upgrade to versions 4.2 or 4.4.

Until March 2024, only bug/security fixes will be merged, there will be no new features.

We look forward to your vote.

+1 for me.

Regards,

Jose García

Hi All,

+1 for me. I worry a little that some people might think the tiniest little issue is a bug that needs fixing though!

Hi All,

I’m not in the PSC, however as an org we’d have hesitation moving to 4 purely based on the number of critical vulnerabilities (https://hub.docker.com/_/geonetwork/tags), we’re already challenged and have to justify using v3 for our Cyber Security Plus Certification (https://www.ncsc.gov.uk/cyberessentials/overview), and v4 “on paper” is more vulnerable.

V3 has ~ 18 C 84 H

V4 has ~ 23C 94H

We did want to send someone to the last sprint to get more familiar with the codebase and allow us to contribute more but unfortunately it didn’t work out that time.

Regards,

Edd

Hi Edd

DockerHub reports quite a few vulnerabilities for Jackson databind 2.9.6, but GeoNetwork 4.2.x uses version 2.10.4 (as of 2020), which has far fewer vulnerabilities. We have inspected the docker image and there are no traces of Jackson databind 2.9.6.

We have submitted feedback to DockerHub to report this issue; As soon as we have additional information, we will let you know.

Jose García
