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
