How to fix?

There is no fixed version for ant:ant.

Overview

ant:ant is a deprecated package, users looking to upgrade to fixed versions of the maintained package should move to org.apache.ant:ant

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Insecure Default. It uses the default temporary directory identified by the Java system property java.io.tmpdir for several tasks and may thus leak sensitive information. The fixcrlf and replaceregexp tasks also copy files from the temporary directory back into the build tree allowing an attacker to inject modified source files into the build process.
