We announced the same few months ago [1] and there was just one release (Struts 2.3.35) that missed the thing [2]. And we won't be releasing a new version just because some of dependencies was discovered to be vulnerable. And yes, we missed that the Struts 2.3.35 and Struts 2.3.36 are using vulnerable library. There is a known vulnerability that affects 1.3.2 and prior versions of commons-fileupload [3]. It's a RCE attack not a DoS.
