commons-httpclient version 3.1 has several known vulnerabilities. The artifact is renamed for 4.x and should be used instead

Aye aye! I'll try to make some time in the near future to address this and some of the other issues!

I second the request. If it helps at all, the main issue you'll have with migrating will be with the HttpSecureProtocol class as the SecureProtocolSocketFactory class has been completely removed. I don't see anything resembling an alternative to it.
