I would bring this up in secur...@commons.apache.org if you have something 
noteworthy. Though a lot of people don’t understand that text manipulation is 
an extremely general toolkit making security concerns something that would 
occur at a higher lever with regards to the system using commons-text. Granted, 
I don’t know your specific situation, thus I would suggest emailing the 
security list and having a conversation there as security conversations in the 
open yield the public knowing about defects before they can be remediated.

Cheers,
-Rob
