Upgrade Apache Commons Collections to v3.2.2 #1753

Closed gmlewis closed 8 years ago

gmlewis commented 8 years ago

Version 3.2.1 has a CVSS 10.0 vulnerability. That is the worst kind of vulnerability that exists. By merely existing on the classpath, this library causes the Java serialization parser for the entire JVM process to go from being a state machine to a turing machine. A turing machine with an exec() function!

gmlewis,

We made this change in our other POMs but seemed to have missed this one. Thank you for bringing this our attention.
