Lijing Lin commented on CODEC-55:
---------------------------------

[~datallah]So is the security vulnerability from WhiteSource false positive? 
Can you provide further justification? Thanks.

The MEDIUM security warning on commons-codec-1.11.jar says, 
"_Not all "business" method implementations of public API in Apache Commons 
Codec 1.x are thread safe, which might disclose the wrong data or allow an 
attacker to change non-private fields._"

> make all "business" method implementations of public API thread safe
