 ### Minor Analysis Improvements
 
 * Java extraction is now able to download Maven 3.9.x if a Maven Enforcer Plugin configuration indicates it is necessary. Maven 3.8.x is still preferred if the enforcer-plugin configuration (if any) permits it.
-* Added a path injection sanitizer for calls to `java.lang.String.matches`, `java.lang.String.replace`, and `java.lang.String.replaceAll` that make sure '/', '\', '..' are not in the path.
