The following critical vulnerability with CVSS Score 9.8 is reported on Common-text-1.9.jar.  Are there any plans to update CSS validator with Common-text-1.10.jar and made available?


CVE-2022-42889<http://web.nvd.nist.gov/view/vuln/detail?vulnId=CVE-2022-42889> | CWE-94<http://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/94.html>

Arbitrary Code Execution: Apache Commons Text is vulnerable to arbitrary code execution. The vulnerability exists in the `lookup` module due to insecure interpolation defaults when untrusted configuration values are used which allows an attacker to inject arbitrary code into the system.

Will appreciate a quick response.


Thanks.
