>    Affects Versions: 2.4

> In WordUtils.abbreviate, upper is adjusted to the length of the string, then to lower.
> But lower is never adjusted to the length of the string, so if lower is greater than str.lengt(), upper will be too...
> Then, str.substring(0, upper) throw a StringIndexOutOfBoundsException
> The fix is to adjust lower to the length of the string
