from PR 309 or later that contains
SharpHoundCommonLib.Processors.ACLProcessorContext; keep SharpHoundRPC on the

SpecterOps SharpHoundCommon PR 309 ACLProcessorContext 4.7.1-dev
💡 Result:
SharpHoundCommon is a library developed by SpecterOps that serves as a core component for BloodHound's data collection tool, SharpHound [1][2]. The versioning system for SharpHoundCommon uses a development-focused convention where -dev releases typically track the latest changes on the library's v4 branch [3][4]. Regarding the specific identifiers provided: ACLProcessorContext: This is a class within SharpHoundCommon, specifically located at src/CommonLib/Processors/ACLProcessor.cs [5]. It is responsible for handling Access Control List (ACL) processing, which includes parsing object security descriptors to identify relationships and edges used by BloodHound [5][6]. Version 4.7.1-dev: As of August 2026, SharpHoundCommon has reached stable versions beyond 4.7.0 [7][8]. The 4.7.1-dev designation indicates a pre-release build following the 4.7.0 stable release, adhering to the standard practice of incrementing the patch version for development builds [3][4]. PR 309: A search of the SpecterOps/SharpHoundCommon repository indicates that pull requests in the 300 range are part of the ongoing maintenance and feature development for the v4 branch [7]. While specific commit histories show active development involving various processors—such as updates to LocalGroup/UserGroup nomenclature and GPO user rights collection—PR 309 relates to these iterative updates within the common library [9][10]. In summary, these components represent the active development trajectory of SharpHoundCommon, where the ACLProcessor remains a critical part of the logic used for mapping Active Directory security relationships [5][6]. Users typically build against the latest -dev version to access the most recent, albeit unreleased, features before they are finalized in a stable release [3].

Build against a SharpHoundCommon artifact that contains ACLProcessorContext.
The resolved SharpHoundCommon package 4.7.1-dev.202607210148 does not define SharpHoundCommonLib.Processors.ACLProcessorContext, but both reviewed sites require it. Select or publish a Common artifact built from PR 309 or later, and keep SharpHoundRPC on the matching version.

Description
Apply ACL processor context changes from SpecterOps/SharpHoundCommon#309 to SharpHound Enterprise. Context scope is defined to exist at Job-lifetime.
This is a first iteration of what I hope to be a larger migration to other *Processors, LdapUtilities, and
staticcaches at large.Motivation and Context
