Hi.

The current version of epubcheck has a vulnerability considered as critical in my current builds, that use epubcheck 4.2.6

See
https://security.snyk.io/vuln/SNYK-JAVA-COMTWELVEMONKEYSIMAGEIO-2316763
https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2021-23792
GHSA-pjch-4g28-fxx7

The vulnerability is caused by one of the dependencies, imageio-jpeg
https://github.com/w3c/epubcheck/blob/main/pom.xml#L210-L214

This security issue was fixed on 3.7.1, but I don't have knowledge to test epubcheck with the upgraded version.

Please note that the version used (3.4.1) is from 2018, last version from that branch is 3.4.3 from 2020 but it not fix the CVE-2021-23792 vulnerability

It's possible to bump the imageio-jpeg dependency?
