Status report for the Apache Commons Project March 2014


The Apache Commons project focuses on all aspects of reusable Java
components.


Apache Commons components are widely used in many projects, both within
Apache and without.


No issues require board attention at this time.


Overall project health is good with twelve releases this period. The [csv]
component is still inching towards 1.0 releases and [imaging] is very close
to 1.0 as well.


Releases:

   - 2013-12-12: Apache Commons BeanUtils 1.9.0
   - 2013-12-20: Apache Commons Codec 1.9
   - 2013-12-31: Apache Commons Pool 2.1
   - 2014-01-01: Apache Commons Lang 3.2
   - 2014-01-02: Apache Commons Exec 1.2
   - 2014-01-09: Apache Commons Lang 3.2.1
   - 2014-01-12: Apache Commons BeanUtils 1.9.1
   - 2014-01-21: Apache Commons Compress 1.7
   - 2014-02-07: Apache Commons FileUpload 1.3.1
      - SECURITY - CVE-2014-0050. Specially crafted input can trigger a DoS
      if the buffer used by the MultipartStream is not big enough. When
      constructing MultipartStream enforce the requirements for buffer size by
      throwing an IllegalArgumentException if the requested buffer size is too
      small. This prevents the DoS.


   - 2014-02-25: Apache Commons Pool 2.2
   - 2014-03-04: Apache Commons Lang 3.3
   - 2014-03-04: Apache Commons DBCP 2.0

·        We’ve moved Commons Attributes to dormant. Since no development
has happened for a long time, we’ve moved the Apache Commons Attributes
component to dormant. No further development is expected.
