HI, our OWASP dependency check is failing builds due to https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2023-33953 (https://cloud.google.com/support/bulletins#gcp-2023-022)

I assume updating of io.grpc dependencies to at least 1.56.2 patch version is required. Thanks!

According to https://cloud.google.com/support/bulletins#gcp-2023-022 the noted vulnerability only applies to the C++ and thereby Python and Ruby (both Python and Ruby use the C++ implementation) implementations of gRPC. The Java gRPC implementation does not use the C++ implementation at all.

I think you are right, also according to: jeremylong/DependencyCheck#5890

However, then this is a false positive for anyone using the dependency check and your library. But not really your problem then, just for your awareness. Thanks.

Thanks for the link to the DependencyCheck issue for posterity.
