Upgrade Apache Commons Collection to v3.2.2 #74

Closed ProgramMax closed 7 years ago

ProgramMax commented 8 years ago

Version 3.2.1 has a CVSS 10.0 vulnerability. That's 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!
