As the user, you have ultimate control over transitive dependency
versions that end up in your application. Using Maven, for example,
you can override the commons-fileupload dependency on commons-io to
the latest release. I don't think anyone here wants to go through an
entire release for a component just to update a dependency.

I'll add that a vulnerability in a dependency does not always translate into a vulnerability in the code using the dependency. The last time the ASF looked at this across a large number of our Java projects, only about 10% of vulnerabilities translated into potential vulnerabilities in the code using the dependency.

HI All,

This is regarding one of security issue that is reported in our component which 
is coming from commons-io (2.2) lib transitive dependency via 
commons-fileupload .
It seems this is fixed in commons-io (2.7) or above, Hence would it be  
possible to bump version of commons-io to 2.8 or 2.9 and release a patch .
I can see that it has been already done with this commit 
https://github.com/apache/commons-fileupload/commit/8370f1e0a15a0469d04579e2abd5500ebf90b8c8/
   may I know by when we can expect a release of 2.0 ? in case patch is not 
possible .


Best Regards
Randeep
