Code Review

This pull request correctly upgrades com.orientechnologies:orientdb-client from 3.2.23 to 3.2.44 to resolve a security vulnerability. While the dependency update is correct, I have pointed out a potential issue this highlights in your test setup. The version of the OrientDB server used for testing is now significantly older than the client library. To prevent potential compatibility issues and ensure your tests remain reliable, I recommend updating the Docker image used in your tests to a version that matches the new client library version.

[gemini-code-assist]

Upgrading orientdb-client to 3.2.44 is correct to fix the security vulnerability. However, this increases the version gap with the OrientDB server used in tests. The test environment uses a Docker image based on orientdb:3.2.20-tp3 (as defined in src/main/docker/orientdb/Dockerfile). This significant version mismatch between the client (3.2.44) and the server (3.2.20-tp3) could lead to subtle compatibility issues or flaky tests.

It is highly recommended to update the FROM instruction in the Dockerfile to use a version that matches the client, for example:

FROM orientdb:3.2.44

This will ensure the test environment is consistent with the application dependencies and improve the reliability of the tests.
