QID 980350: Java (maven) Security Update for org.eclipse.jetty:jetty-deploy (GHSA-j6qj-j888-vvgq)

Security update has been released for org.eclipse.jetty:jetty-deploy to fix the vulnerability.

Note: The preceding description block is extracted directly from the security advisory. Using automation, we have attempted to clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

If the `${jetty.base}` directory or the `${jetty.base}/webapps` directory is a symlink (soft link in Linux), the contents of the `${jetty.base}/webapps` directory may be deployed as a static web application, exposing the content of the directory for download.

For example, the problem manifests in the following `${jetty.base}`:
```$ tree demo-base/
demo-base/
etc
lib
resources
start.d
deploy
async-rest.war
webapps -> deploy

```
