Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for commons-lang.

CVE-2025-48924[0]:
| Uncontrolled Recursion vulnerability in Apache Commons Lang.  This
| issue affects Apache Commons Lang: Starting with commons-
| lang:commons-lang 2.0 to 2.6, and, from org.apache.commons:commons-
| lang3 3.0 before 3.18.0.  The methods ClassUtils.getClass(...) can
| throw StackOverflowError on very long inputs. Because an Error is
| usually not handled by applications and libraries, a
| StackOverflowError could cause an application to stop.  Users are
| recommended to upgrade to version 3.18.0, which fixes the issue.


If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.
