| Java remediation behavior differs from Python. Because Maven POMs typically pin dependencies to exact versions rather than using version ranges, Chainguard may update a package's POM dependency tree directly to reference remediated versions of its dependencies. This means transitive dependencies can receive CVE remediations without requiring changes to your own dependency declarations. | ||
