Upgrade org.bouncycastle:bcprov-debug-jdk14 to version 1.84 or higher.
Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to LDAP Injection via the parseDN handling and the LDAP store helpers in X509LDAPCertStoreSpi and LDAPStoreHelper. An attacker can influence LDAP search filters by supplying a crafted X.500 subject or issuer string that is parsed into an unescaped filter value. This lets the attacker alter the directory query used to locate certificates and CRLs, causing the application to retrieve incorrect LDAP entries or fail to find the intended ones, which can break certificate validation and revocation checks.
