Version 3.2.1 has a CVSS 10.0 vulnerability. That is the worst kind of
vulnerability that exists. By merely existing on the classpath, this
library causes the Java serialization parser for the entire JVM process
to go from being a state machine to a turing machine. A turing machine
with an exec() function!

Hello Glenn,

IPF development has been moved to https://github.com/oehf/ipf a few years ago.
Of course, we have opportunely upgraded Apache commons-collections there.

Thank you very much and best regards
Dmytro
