Dear Codehaus Cargo enthusiats

It has been discovered (ref. CVE-2020-1945) that Apache Ant 1.1 to 1.9.14 and 1.10.0 to 1.10.7 uses the default temporary directory identified by the Java system property java.io.tmpdir for several tasks and may thus leak sensitive information. Moreover, the fixcrlf and replaceregexp tasks copy files from the temporary directory back into the build tree allowing an attacker to inject modified source files into the Codehaus Cargo container configuration generation process.

We hence strongly recommend only using Apache Ant versions 1.9.15 (for Ant 1.9.x) or versions 1.10.8 and above.
