Questions

About httpclient

Is httpclient safe to use?

What is httpclient's Vulert package health score?

Vulert scores httpclient 87/100, which reads as healthy. The score weighs the vulnerability record (40), maintenance and release cadence (25), adoption from dependents and stars (20) and community signals such as the OpenSSF scorecard and forks (15).

Is the latest version of httpclient affected?

Which version of httpclient should I use?

2.9.0 is the version Vulert recommends for the affected releases. The version table above lists every release with the vulnerabilities recorded against it, so you can confirm the range you actually run.

How many vulnerabilities does httpclient have?

How often are new httpclient vulnerabilities disclosed?

0 vulnerabilities were recorded for httpclient in the last 12 months. Recency matters more than a lifetime total: it shows how actively new issues are being disclosed for the package you are considering.

Which versions of httpclient are affected?

Each vulnerability on this page lists the affected version range and the fixed version to move to. Open the vulnerability for the version you actually run — fixes are specific to a release line, not to the package as a whole.

How do I monitor httpclient for upcoming vulnerabilities?

Upload the manifest or SBOM for your application at vulert.com/scanner and Vulert keeps checking the httpclient version you actually run against new disclosures, then alerts you when one affects it. There is no installation and no source-code access required.
