Hello community.
 
On the past weeks, a security vulnerability was found in Apache Commons Collections library, particularly on versions 3.x and 4.x. You can see details here
http://foxglovesecurity.com/2015/11/06/what-do-weblogic-websphere-jboss-jenkins-opennms-and-your-application-have-in-common-this-vulnerability/
 
The fix is on its way and tracked under this JIRA
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COLLECTIONS-580
 
Now, I've been digging this a little bit and found that one M2E plugin is bundling this commons-collections.jar archive, at least on Eclipse Luna. Doing a quick search in the Eclipse installation I found this
org.eclipse.m2e.archetype.common_1.5.0.20140605-2032/commons-collections-3.2.jar
 
Do you have any plans to patch this plugin with the updated library (once available)?
 
Regards
