> ParametersInterceptor checks a parameter's value with 
> ParameterValueAware.acceptableParameterValue(...) and with 
> excludedValuePatterns / acceptedValuePatterns, but passes only 
> Parameter.getValue(), which for a repeated parameter is the first value. The 
> whole String[] is then set on the action.
> Reproduction (main, against a running Struts Boot app): an action 
> implementing ParameterValueAware that rejects "evil", with a String[] setter 
> annotated @StrutsParameter.
>   ?tags=evil            -> rejected
>   ?tags=evil&tags=ok    -> rejected
>   ?tags=ok&tags=evil    -> accepted, the action receives [ok, evil]
> The same holds for excludedValuePatterns and acceptedValuePatterns.
> The ParameterValueAware javadoc says it lets an action reject values "to 
> prevent clients from setting other unexpected (and possibly dangerous) 
> parameter values". JSONInterceptor already checks every element of a JSON 
> array (WW-4858).
> Affected versions: the same check (param.getValue(), which is the first 
> value) is present in the 6.12.0, 7.0.0, 7.3.0 and 7.4.0 tags, by source 
> inspection. The behaviour itself was only reproduced on main.
> Fix: check every value of a repeated parameter. One rejected value rejects 
> the whole parameter, as a rejected first value does today. Single-valued and 
> empty parameters are checked as before.
> Tests: three new tests in ParametersInterceptorTest (excluded patterns, 
> accepted patterns, ParameterValueAware). They fail without the change and 
> pass with it.
