GeoTools 25.5 released

The GeoTools team is pleased to announce the release GeoTools 25.5:

GeoTools 25.5 is published to repo.osgeo.org for direct build integration. This release is made in conjunction with GeoServer 2.19.5. The GeoTools team is grateful to Astun Technology for allowing Ian Turton the time to prepare this release.

Bug Fixes

This is a maintenance release and includes the following bug fixes and tasks: 
  • GEOT-7073 GeoPackage store fails to use spatial indexes when multiple BBOX filters are used at the same time
  • GEOT-7071 GetFeatureInfo in WMSLayer has problems in transinformation of I,J params
It's worth noting that GeoTools does not directly use Log4J, but adopts the Java Logging Framework. However, it has a plugin allowing to redirect all the logging calls to Log4J, for which we have made a fix in GEOT-7038. Please read more about the vulnerability assessment of Log4J 1.2.17 vulnerabilities in this GeoServer blog post.
