Build doesn't support recent version of Java

I am unable to build drill. I get the following error:
Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-enforcer-plugin:1.3.1:enforce (validate_java_and_maven_version) on project drill-root: Some Enforcer rules have failed. Look above for specific messages explaining why the rule failed. -> [Help 1]

It looks like my java version is too recent. Do I need to install an old version or should this be updated in the build configuration?
[WARNING] Rule 1: org.apache.maven.plugins.enforcer.RequireJavaVersion failed with message:
Detected JDK Version: 1.8.0-45 is not in the allowed range [1.7,1.8).

I followed these steps:
git clone https://github.com/apache/drill.git
mvn clean install
