Ask HN: Could the NPM fiasco happen to Maven?
What's the level of vulnerability that Java's maven faces, if something like the NPM fiasco were to happen to a widely used mvn dependency?
- mooreds 11y agoYou mean, unpublishing a widely used library? Once it had been uploaded to, say, maven central? I couldn't figure out how to do that and some googling turned up: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9789611/removing-an-artifact-from-maven-central http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9789611/removing-an-artif... Which indicates it "can't be done". So, no I dont think maven has that particular issue.
