 Apache Commons JEXL 3.7.0 Release Notes

 The Apache Commons JEXL team is pleased to announce the release of Apache 
Commons JEXL 3.7.0.

-Two defaults change:
+o The default permissions is now "SECURE": a minimum allow-list covering only 
safe java.lang

explicitly composed in.
 
-  o The default permissions become SECURE — a minimum allow-list covering only 
safe java.lang
-    value types, java.math, and java.util. Everything else is denied unless 
explicitly composed in.
-
-  o The default features disable new(...), global side-effects, pragmas, and 
annotations, and enable
-    lexical scoping; loops remain available to scripts (but never to 
expressions). Scripts using a
-    disabled construct will throw JexlException.Feature at parse time with the 
default engine.

 New features
-============
-
-o JEXL-465:  Add JexlConfigLoader to build a JexlEngine from a YAML 
configuration (permissions,

-o JEXL-463:  Add JexlPermissions.logging() to wrap a permission set and log

-Fixed Bugs
