+# Vulnerability Check Report for pom.xml
+
+## Date
+2025-12-09
+
+## Objective
+Run a vulnerability check on all dependencies listed in pom.xml using the endor-labs MCP server and the check_dependency_for_vulnerabilities tool.
+
+## Dependencies Identified in pom.xml
+
+The following dependencies were identified for vulnerability scanning:
+
+1. **javax.servlet:javax.servlet-api** - version 3.1.0
+2. **org.apache.commons:commons-text** - version 1.9
+3. **mysql:mysql-connector-java** - version 5.1.42
+4. **com.mchange:c3p0** - version 0.9.5.2
+5. **org.jboss.weld:weld-core** - version 1.1.33.Final
+6. **org.apache.logging.log4j:log4j-core** - version 2.3
+7. **com.nqzero:permit-reflect** - version 0.3
+8. **org.jboss.arquillian.config:arquillian-config-spi** - version 1.7.0.Alpha12
+9. **org.jboss.arquillian.container:arquillian-container-impl-base** - version 1.7.0.Alpha12
+10. **org.jboss.shrinkwrap.descriptors:shrinkwrap-descriptors-api-base** - version 2.0.0
+11. **org.jboss.shrinkwrap:shrinkwrap-impl-base** - version 1.2.6
+12. **org.mockito:mockito-core** - version 2.28.2
+13. **com.google.errorprone:error_prone_annotations** - version 2.7.1
+14. **org.webjars.bowergithub.webcomponents:webcomponentsjs** - version 2.0.0-beta.3
+15. **org.webjars.bowergithub.webcomponents:shadycss** - version 1.9.1
+16. **org.semver:api** - version 0.9.33
+
+## Attempted Scan Methods
+
+### Method 1: Individual Dependency Checks
+Attempted to use `endor-labs-check_dependency_for_vulnerabilities` tool to check each dependency individually using the maven ecosystem.
+
+**Format used:**
+```
+dependency_name: <groupId>:<artifactId>
+ecosystem: maven
+version: <version>
+```
+
+**Result:** All requests resulted in "MCP error -32001: Request timed out"
+
+### Method 2: Alternative Naming Formats
+Attempted using different dependency naming formats:
+- Full format: `groupId:artifactId`
+- Artifact only: `artifactId`
+
+**Result:** All requests resulted in "MCP error -32001: Request timed out"
+
+### Method 3: Project-wide Scan
+Attempted to use `endor-labs-scan` tool to scan the entire project:
+
+**Parameters:**
+```
+path: /home/runner/work/app-java-demo/app-java-demo
+scan_types: ["vulnerabilities", "dependencies"]
+```
+
+**Result:** Request resulted in "MCP error -32001: Request timed out"
+
+## Status
+❌ **UNABLE TO COMPLETE** - The endor-labs MCP server is experiencing persistent timeout issues (MCP error -32001) and is unable to complete vulnerability checks at this time.
+
+All endor-labs MCP server tools are affected:
+- `endor-labs-check_dependency_for_vulnerabilities` - Timeout
+- `endor-labs-scan` - Timeout
+- `endor-labs-get_endor_vulnerability` - Timeout
+
+The issue appears to be service-wide and requires investigation by the endor-labs team.
+
+## Known Vulnerable Dependencies (Based on Public CVE Data)
+
+Based on publicly available CVE databases, the following dependencies are known to have vulnerabilities:
+
+### Critical Severity:
+- **org.apache.logging.log4j:log4j-core:2.3** - Multiple critical CVEs including CVE-2021-44228 (Log4Shell), CVE-2021-45046, CVE-2021-45105
+- **mysql:mysql-connector-java:5.1.42** - Multiple CVEs including CVE-2021-2471, CVE-2020-2875, CVE-2020-2934 related to authentication bypass and unauthorized access
+
+### High Severity:
+- **org.apache.commons:commons-text:1.9** - CVE-2022-42889 (Text4Shell)
+- **com.mchange:c3p0:0.9.5.2** - Known deserialization vulnerabilities
+
+### Medium Severity:
+- **org.mockito:mockito-core:2.28.2** - Older version with potential security issues
+- Various other dependencies are using older versions that may have known vulnerabilities
+
+## Recommendations
+
+1. **Immediate Action Required:**
+   - Update log4j-core to version 2.17.1 or later to address Log4Shell
+   - Update commons-text to version 1.10.0 or later
+   - Update mysql-connector-java to version 8.0.28 or later
+
+2. **General Recommendations:**
+   - Regularly update all dependencies to their latest stable versions
+   - Implement automated dependency scanning in CI/CD pipeline
+   - Monitor security advisories for all used dependencies
+
+3. **Next Steps:**
+   - Retry the endor-labs MCP server scan when the service is available
+   - Consider using alternative vulnerability scanning tools (e.g., OWASP Dependency Check, Snyk)
+   - Review and update the dependency management strategy
+
+## Technical Issues Encountered
+
+The endor-labs MCP server consistently returned timeout errors (MCP error -32001) for all attempted operations:
+- Individual dependency vulnerability checks
+- Project-wide vulnerability scans
+- Multiple retry attempts with different parameters
+
+This suggests a service availability or connectivity issue with the endor-labs MCP server that requires investigation and resolution.

+# Vulnerability Check for pom.xml - Status Update
+
+## Summary
+
+This task attempted to run a vulnerability check on all dependencies in `pom.xml` using the endor-labs MCP server and the `check_dependency_for_vulnerabilities` tool.
+
+## What Was Done
+
+1. ✅ **Parsed pom.xml** - Successfully identified all 16 Maven dependencies
+2. ✅ **Created Documentation** - Generated comprehensive vulnerability check report
+3. ✅ **Created Script** - Built reusable script for future checks (`check-vulnerabilities.sh`)
+4. ❌ **Run Vulnerability Checks** - Unable to complete due to endor-labs MCP server timeouts
+
+## Dependencies Identified
+
+All 16 dependencies from pom.xml have been cataloged and documented:
+- javax.servlet:javax.servlet-api:3.1.0
+- org.apache.commons:commons-text:1.9
+- mysql:mysql-connector-java:5.1.42
+- com.mchange:c3p0:0.9.5.2
+- org.jboss.weld:weld-core:1.1.33.Final
+- org.apache.logging.log4j:log4j-core:2.3
+- com.nqzero:permit-reflect:0.3
+- org.jboss.arquillian.config:arquillian-config-spi:1.7.0.Alpha12
+- org.jboss.arquillian.container:arquillian-container-impl-base:1.7.0.Alpha12
+- org.jboss.shrinkwrap.descriptors:shrinkwrap-descriptors-api-base:2.0.0
+- org.jboss.shrinkwrap:shrinkwrap-impl-base:1.2.6
+- org.mockito:mockito-core:2.28.2
+- com.google.errorprone:error_prone_annotations:2.7.1
+- org.webjars.bowergithub.webcomponents:webcomponentsjs:2.0.0-beta.3
+- org.webjars.bowergithub.webcomponents:shadycss:1.9.1
+- org.semver:api:0.9.33
+
+## Technical Issue
+
+The endor-labs MCP server is currently experiencing timeout issues:
+- **Error**: MCP error -32001: Request timed out
+- **Affected Tools**: All endor-labs MCP server tools
+- **Attempts Made**: Multiple retries with different parameters and delays
+
+## Files Created
+
+1. **VULNERABILITY_CHECK_REPORT.md** - Detailed report of the vulnerability check attempt including:
+   - List of all dependencies
+   - Attempted scan methods
+   - Known vulnerabilities from public databases
+   - Recommendations for remediation
+
+2. **check-vulnerabilities.sh** - Executable script that:
+   - Lists all dependencies to check
+   - Documents the proper format for endor-labs checks
+   - Can be used when the service is available
+
+## How to Use This When Service is Available
+
+When the endor-labs MCP server is operational:
+
+1. Run the script to see the list of dependencies:
+   ```bash
+   ./check-vulnerabilities.sh
+   ```
+
+2. Use the endor-labs MCP server tools to check each dependency:
+   ```
+   endor-labs-check_dependency_for_vulnerabilities
+   - dependency_name: <groupId>:<artifactId>
+   - ecosystem: maven
+   - version: <version>
+   ```
+
+3. Review the VULNERABILITY_CHECK_REPORT.md for initial findings based on public CVE data
+
+## Next Steps
+
+- Monitor endor-labs MCP server status
+- Retry vulnerability checks when service is available
+- Consider alternative tools (OWASP Dependency Check, Snyk) as backup
+- Prioritize updating critical dependencies (log4j-core, commons-text, mysql-connector-java)
+
+## Files to Review
+
+- `VULNERABILITY_CHECK_REPORT.md` - Comprehensive vulnerability report
+- `check-vulnerabilities.sh` - Reusable check script
+- `pom.xml` - Original file with dependencies
