Description
A vulnerability in commons-collections was recently discovered:

OpenDaylight does not appear to expose any vector for deserializing arbitrary user-supplied content, therefore this vulnerability is not exploitable on OpenDaylight. As a hardening measure, we should consume a patched version of the library.
Randy Randhawa noted:
Looking into Beryllium sources, the only reference to commons-collections I can find is Karaf’s org.apache.karaf.demos.my-kar. Karaf still pulls in commons-collections 3.2.1 in the 3.x release train, though 4.x already upgraded: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KARAF-4135. I pinged them about backporting the change.
