[jira] [Created] (VELTOOLS-183) beanutils 1.9.4 breaks velocity-tools

ajbanck created VELTOOLS-183:
--------------------------------

             Summary: beanutils 1.9.4 breaks velocity-tools
                 Key: VELTOOLS-183
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VELTOOLS-183
             Project: Velocity Tools
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: ajbanck


beanutils 1.9.4 was release to mitigate CVE-2014-0114.  For this  the *default* behaviour of the BeanUtilsBean was changed to not allow class level access, see BEANUTILS-520.

When using velocity-tools in a project that manages/enforces beanutils to version 1.9.4 velocity-tools stops working as expected. This is easily demonstrated with the unittests.

Running the velocity-tools unit tests will fail on ConfigTests.testXmlConfig
 # In velocity-tools-generic/pom.xml update commons-beanutils to 1.9.4
 # run mvn verify
