+ When installing from a repository, p2 now logs a warning in case some technologies used for the installation are considered unsafe.
+ Here are the cases covered so far and that will trigger a logged warning:
+ <ul>
+ <li><code>http</code> repositories are used (<code>http</code> repositories expose to CVE-2021-41033)</li>
+ <li>Artifact checksums are either missing, or none of the available digest algorithms is considered safe (eg md5).</li>
