Raises dependency versions that OSV/GHSA report as vulnerable in modules/flowable-dependencies/pom.xml. All are patch-level bumps within the same minor line.

Property From To Advisories on old version
jackson.version 2.21.3 2.21.8 16
jackson3.version 3.1.3 3.1.8 15
spring.framework.version 7.0.7 7.0.10 1
mariadb.version 3.5.8 3.5.11 4
postgresql.version 42.7.11 42.7.14 1

OSV reports no advisories for the new versions.

Not included: httpclient5 5.6.1 has one advisory fixed in 5.6.3, but moving to 5.6.5 made 10 tests in flowable-http fail with TLS errors (No name matching localhost found), so it needs separate investigation. Apache CXF is in a separate PR.

Spring Boot (4.1.0-RC1) and Spring Security (7.1.0-RC1) are unchanged. The pom comment says to update the Spring versions together; only Spring Framework changed here, so please say if you would rather bump the others together.

Testing: full mvn -Pdistro install across all modules passes. Three tests were excluded from that run: CallActivityTypeConversionTest and the CMMN TypeConversionTest fail on main today regardless of this change, because they assert that a "10 day" period lies between 239h and 240h01m, which fails now because US daylight saving ends before the 10-day window does (it is 241h); that is fixed in #4316. BoundaryTimerEventTest has a 100 ms timing assertion that failed once under load and passed on rerun; it is a separate flake.

@dbmalkovsky @filiphr @tijsrademakers @jbarrez - could you please review this change? It bumps Jackson, Jackson 3, Spring Framework and the MariaDB and PostgreSQL drivers to patched versions; OSV scans flag the current versions with known CVEs, and 8.0.0 users are asking for a release that clears security reviews. The full mvn -Pdistro install build passes. Thank you!
