The mysql-connector-java Java library has been updated in shared/common/modules/shared/database-drivers/pom.xml to version 8.0.28 to avoid security vulnerability CVE-2022-21363 of the previous version. Note, that the updated version of mysql-connector-java also dropped support for deprecated TLSv1 and TLSv1.1 connection protocols and requires using more-secure TLSv1.2 or TLSv1.3 protocols, which have to be supported by the used MySQL server.

For details, see the release notes of the mysql-connector-java driver in https://dev.mysql.com/doc/relnotes/connector-j/8.0/en/news-8-0-28.html .
