Description

Please add OWASP Dependency Check to the ActiveMQ build (pom.xml).   OWASP DC makes an outbound REST call to MITRE Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures (CVE) to perform a lookup for each dependant .jar

OWASP Dependency check : https://www.owasp.org/index.php/OWASP_Dependency_Check has plug-ins for most Java build/make types (ant, maven, gradle).   Add the appropriate command to the nightly build to generate a report of all known vulnerabilities in any/all third party libraries/dependencies that get pulled in. 

Generating this report nightly/weekly will help inform the project's development team if any dependant libraries have a reported known vulneraility.  Project teams that keep up with removing vulnerabilities on a weekly basis weekly basis will help protect businesses that rely on these open source componets.
