Since version 3.1.0, it has been moved to `params/parameters.toml`. Note
that an alternative to appending would be to use
`params/private-parameters.toml` but in our case, I don't think it
matters much as we don't keep the build directory.
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.
3.0.x users should upgrade to 3.0.22
