    CVE-2015-3253

    Summary: Updated groovy package fixes security vulnerability

    Details: When an application has Groovy on the classpath and that it uses standard Java serialization mechanim to communicate between servers, or to store local data, it is possible for an attacker to bake a special serialized object that will execute code directly when deserialized. All applications which rely on serialization and do not isolate the code which deserializes objects are subject to this vulnerability (CVE-2015-3253).
