# Security digest: January 31, 2025

1 critical advisory.

## Take stock

- Maven: 1 critical advisory ( net.sourceforge.pmd:pmd-designer , net.sourceforge.pmd:pmd-core , net.sourceforge.pmd:pmd-ui ). Check with mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=<groupId>:<artifactId> .
- None of it touches your stack? Then there is nothing to do today. That is a result, not a failure to read carefully.

## Known exploited (CISA KEV)

None.
