the most significant of these changes. The Release Notes are available at

The following security issues are also fixed with this release:
It was found that the Apache commons-collections library permitted code
execution when deserializing objects involving a specially constructed
chain of classes. A remote attacker could use this flaw to execute
arbitrary code with the permissions of the application using the
commons-collections library. (CVE-2015-7501)
Further information about this security flaw may be found at:
https://access.redhat.com/solutions/2045023
It was found that batik was vulnerable to XML External Entity attacks when
parsing SVG files. A remote attacker able to send malicious SVG content to
the affected server could use this flaw to read files accessible to the
user running the application server, and potentially perform other more
advanced XXE attacks. (CVE-2015-0250)
It was found that jsoup did not properly validate user-supplied HTML
content; certain HTML snippets could get past the validator without being
detected as unsafe. A remote attacker could use a specially crafted HTML
snippet to execute arbitrary web script in the user's browser.
(CVE-2015-6748)
All users of Red Hat JBoss BPM Suite 6.1.2 as provided from the Red Hat
Customer Portal are advised to upgrade to Red Hat JBoss BPM Suite 6.2.0.
