The Apache Commons Codec package contains simple encoder and decoders for
various formats such as Base64 and Hexadecimal. In addition to these
widely used encoders and decoders, the codec package also maintains a
collection of phonetic encoding utilities.
Not all "business" method implementations of public API in Apache Commons Codec 1.x are thread safe, which might disclose the wrong data or allow an attacker to change non-private fields.Updated 2018-10-07 - an additional review by WhiteSource research team could not indicate on a clear security vulnerability.
