Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for ant.

CVE-2020-1945[0]:
| 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. The fixcrlf and replaceregexp tasks also copy files from
| the temporary directory back into the build tree allowing an attacker
| to inject modified source files into the build process.


If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.
