Motivation for this change

Issue: #99742
Reason: Fixes CVE-2020-13946 Apache Cassandra RMI Rebind Vulnerability

Description:
It is possible for a local attacker without access to the Apache Cassandra
process or configuration files to manipulate the RMI registry to perform a
man-in-the-middle attack and capture user names and passwords used to access
the JMX interface. The attacker can then use these credentials to access
the JMX interface and perform unauthorised operations.

Users should also be aware of CVE-2019-2684, a JRE vulnerability that enables
this issue to be exploited remotely.

2.1.x users should upgrade to 2.1.22

Things done
  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS linux)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nixpkgs-review --run "nixpkgs-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Determined the impact on package closure size (by running nix path-info -S before and after)
  • Ensured that relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.
