Security Vulnerability found in Aspose dependency

@ask4dhananjay,

As I said earlier, of the dependencies you described that were found to have vulnerabilities, Aspose.Words for Java only includes org.bouncycastle:bc-fips and com.fasterxml.woodstox:woodstox-core, which have been updated to versions 1.0.2.4 and 6.5.2 respectively in the latest Aspose.Words for Java 23.6 update.

Relevant updates (tickets WORDSJAVA 2812 and WORDSJAVA 2863) have been posted in the Release Notes.

Hi @alexey.maslov
I understand that tickets WORDSJAVA 2812 and WORDSJAVA 2863 have been addressed in recent versions.

My question from previous thread was -

I don’t see the details of third party / open source products like org.bouncycastle:bc-fips used by Aspose products.

Where can I see all the third party products including open source used in Aspose products ? This will help us in populating pom.xml properly.

Can you please help me to populate all the 3rd party libraries with version details as I cannot list all from installation guide ? (like org.bouncycastle:bc-fips which is confirmed as vulnerability but not listed in installation guide)

Regards
Dhananjay
