The Red Hat security team deemed this advisory irrelevant for RHEL:8.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream maven-shared-utils-javadoc package and not the maven-shared-utils-javadoc package as distributed by RHEL.
In Apache Maven maven-shared-utils prior to version 3.3.3, the Commandline class can emit double-quoted strings without proper escaping, allowing shell injection attacks.
